No time for interspection

Prepare for the infection

Suddenly a revelation ablaze

as the sound of a choir rang

A hint of light in this maze

... and the rose sang

Embrace this reality

in this state of duality

where the red king reigns

Time flows in one direction

What he seeks is imperfection

as the nexus of time crumbles

Blossom as fierce as the sky

Vermilion as a bloody fang

A phantasm that will unify

... and the rose sang

Take a rest in the arms of creation

or walk the road to vindication

Embrace this reality

in this state of duality

Embrace this reality

in this state of duality

Hear the rose

Feel the wind

Breathe the divine

See through the keyhole
