Valerios Calocerinos
Hands and Blade Crimson
She crept down to the bottom of those spiral stairs
She heard a bump in the night, another one of her fancy nightmares,
Black kitty cat hissed at a space on the wall
Where a portrait once hung of their dark lives before
She stopped dead in her tracks as cloud of grey smoke
Took the form of he who had long passed
She heard his voice again
Let it go your here with me now
With all her might she kicked open that heavy old door
Her safety was in the dark night, this house had now become alive
She ran naked into the cold, her skin bitten by the crisp air
Like a lynx she darted through Gods acre
Star gazers lay limp on fresh dirt
Her past rolling behind her
Like thunder and brimmed cloud
She ran until she reached a bottomless pit
And was tripped by an old demon we call Fate
'Fuck I'm going to hell' she yelled as she fell, and then it became all too familiar
All too familiar
And there stood the man, Horns trident, red, the whole debacle
'What brings you here my girl? There's no more room in hell
Even I draw the line somewhere
Try my old friend upstairs, maybe he is in one of his curious moods'
She thought she had buried his words
When she lost control many moons ago
Too shocking for hell and well for heaven it's a complicated place
So its back to that house to relive that night where with that sharp edged toy she took to his face
Satisfied he felt pain she thrust again and again
Hands and blade crimson
With a charge in her veins and aroused with disdain
That angry child that had been hiding inside her for so long
Finally took the reigns and unleashed that dark horse
He is now split in two but its still not enough for her elegant crescendo
With a bronze bust of some guy, head smashed like an egg
Then she took the knife with her to the bed
And watched colour fade to black and grey
She watched colour fade to black and grey
She thought it was over now, she can get some peace
But as we have learnt there's no place for a girl like her
So now she relives that night with hands
Hands and blade crimson Hands and blade crimson
