Painting pictures of the world she knows
The one she likes to show to me
A lady in red is a hundered years
From where I seem to be

There are no reasons to flee
And no moon to give us dreams

I'd like to die inside her her eyes
By her side and in disguise
So she'll never recognize
This black shroud of swarming flies

I know my flesh is terrified
Her ruby eyes drowning lies
Borderline sanctified
I give her insects of the dead

A lady dressed in deep red

I lay her juniper to bed
Russet memoirs of the dead
Devoured sexless strands and threads
A gaping hole in my head

My lady dressed in the deepest of red
