Gift To Merry
From Dark Avenger & Risu

By Risu

Title: Movement of Emotion
Written while listening to Calling.
By Dark Avenger

Desperation, crying out into the dark
Grasping at something not quite there
Reality dissipating, evaporating away
Flags of shocking red hang overhead
Silent arms waving to brilliant stars
Masked disaster, exploding brightly
Pressing need, driving further away
Holding the white linens of tomorrow
Sorrow and happiness combine as one
Breathless destruction, angry lines
Wishing for the past, crimson forever
Hanging on tomorrow, gasping for air
Dying within and living on the outside
Veiled forgiveness in the waking dawn
Choking on air and drawing on sweetness
Claiming the depth, one and the same
Filling to the brim, spilling life over edge
Overflowing passion, emotional depth
Depraved and haunted, lyrics of expression
Deep and drawn out, handing out truth
Starting slow and ending in a rush of energy
Plucking the strings of our souls one by one
Holding out everything for the world to see
Bound and tied, kept complete and waiting
Stealing attention, grasping reality harshly
Sparking ignition of flame and retention
Thrumming rhythm, made for perfection
Feeling the truth of it all, never letting go
