Choreograph this life of mine
Mixing the colors of pain
The crimson glints like a ruby stone
The sapphire pours out like rain
The graceful dance of the raging lion
Crushes the bow of the swan
The cries of the heroes keep fading out
And the stars are drowned out by dawn
The melody of the pearl white keys
Replaced by the beat of the drum
The feast set out upon linen cloth
Mingles down to a crumb
The towering trees cast a darkened path
Down to the once bright desire
But now the wind steals the air we breathe
And the ash of a long ago fire
The scene plays out in my darkened mind
Two lovers dressed in their roles
They dance and scream and rage on and on
The one thing thatâ??s lost is their souls
With one grateful shout, the lion wins
And the crimson and sapphire blend
The purple blood spurts from odd angles
Too vivid and too deep to mend
The sun has risen, the drum has played
The trees only grow one inch more
And as the show ends, the chaos starts
My heart left too broken to soar
