Underneath a red, red moon,
in the garden of a red, red demon,
roses will bloom
red, red blossoms.
Darker than black,
destruction, hate,
born from the suffering
of this world.
Underneath a white, white moon,
in the garden of a white, white angel,
roses will bloom
white, white blossoms.
Brighter than light,
hope, faith,
created from the happiness
of this land.
But slowly, slowly,
the moon turns black.
White petals
begin to fall.
A black silhouette
against a blacker sky.
Night is crying
even with the moon shining.
Red petals
dance across the horizon.
The moon is turning black
with poison.
Thorns are failing
to do their job.
Protect the rose
from shattering.
The world continues to turn
as darkness falls.
The light is gone
from this existence.
