Ruby Fountain

In the cold and in the dark
There I am, alone, and shivering
Holding my very life in icy hands

I wish I could live inside of her
I wish I could sleep where she is
I wish I could bathe in her ruby fountain

In the heat and in the light
There she is, surrounded, and smiling
Holding my very life in warm hands

She wishes I would just go away
She wishes she could forget my face
She wishes I would bathe in her ruby fountain

In the smoke and in the fog
There he is, buried, and decaying
Holding her very life in rotten hands

He wished she would have lived inside him
He wished she would have forgotten my face
He finally drowned in her ruby fountain

In the ground and in the sky
There she is, lonely, and crying
Holding his very life in boney hands

She wishes he would just burn up
She wishes I would just go away
She wishes she could drown in her ruby fountain

In the day and in the night
There I am, surrounded, and crying
Holding her very life in withered hands

I wish she would just go away
I wish she would forget my face

I wish I could drown in her ruby fountain
