Lyric

Shadows sway in the night wind’s laugh

Eternity’s not here, just fleeting half

Yet in the ashes of my chest, desire bites

A fire ignites in the dry, dark night

Crimson lycoris drenched in dew

One touch, it shatters—vanishes too soon

I reach for only your color, trembling hand

Love or poison—can I understand?

Leave all hatred in the jar of venom

Let it sleep, let it lie, let it be undone

Pulses pour into the night, still they burn

This craving in my chest, the flames return

Wounded desires bare their fangs in the dark

I chase the spark that lights the lonely heart

In alleys late, shadows sway and plead

Seeking light, salvation or phantom’s seed

I cast aside questions, only answers call

This thirst becomes my guide, my heartbeat’s thrall

Keep hatred sealed in the jar of venom deep

Let it sleep while the restless heart won’t keep

Pain throbs and begs for light in fractured chest

Even if it shatters, it will not rest

Petals slipping through my fingers, thrown to dawn

From ashes sprouts red, taint and hope reborn

Crimson lycoris, drenched and proud

Embracing fire, shouting to the crowd

Even in longing, I rise, I bloom, I dare

Tomorrow dyed in red, my poison in the air
