Bron Dayvid (March 3 1993 / Cleveland, Ohio)
Red Skies
Red skies Red skies cover up black lies
Seeking the truth results only in his demise
He sees Red skies Red skies please close his eyes
For the truth he seeks is not honesty but evil’s compromise
Red skies Red skies create black clouds that corrupt the innocent air
What was once pure is no more than a toxic deadly despair
As the black clouds get darker the soul grows colder
And falls harder than hail further than hell
And once the soul abandons the mind so too will the spirit
The body is left susceptible to evil blinded unable to clear it
No matter how hard he fights no matter how hard he tries
He will never escape the sight of those Red skies Red skies
