Amaranth Opening Through the fog Slow focusing I'm holding for a siren warning Holding for a spotlight searching Holding for a promise to stay Holding holding holding I stay holding for it I remember pacing blank ground I remember thorns shredding my palms I want to see the petals stagger onto me See my body carried splintering And I remember scorching it all Amaranth Opening Through the noise Scarlet beckoning Following an afterglow to Following parades of ashes to Following red embers leading To flames to flames to flames To flames to flames when I remember pacing blank ground I remember thorns shredding my palms And I remember scorching it all I remember scorching it all I want to see the surface of the water bend See it cave in diving over me Bring a steady pour of hours to Clear the moss from days dissolving and See the petals stagger onto me See my body carried splintered and High, high enough for scattering Amaranth Crawling to it Amaranth Crawling to it, to it, to it, to it, to it Amaranth Crawling to it Amaranth Crawling to it, to it, to it, to it, to it
