A Wasteland Covered in Red
Silent and unnoticed the girl crawls around
In the dark alley at night, where shadows lie
She sneaks and steals and kidnaps and bounds
She rules the kingdom that is my mind
My mind, where happy people pass,
Smiling faces but blank eyes
Lavish houses and lawns with vibrant grass
Never noticing when one of them dies
She snatches them from where they preen
going about their merry day
She slits their throat, so quick and clean
Never stays to watch the blood pour away
The demon, the dark lady, the queen,
A wraith, a beauty disguised
She picks them out, so quiet, unseen
No one noticed her rise
Her oppression, her hate, her cruelty
Her subjects, her creators, all of them dead
My mind withers like an unwatered lily
She dies ruling the wasteland covered in red
