[00:11.42]<I. The Crimson Sunrise>
[00:12.76]
[00:14.22]Instrumental
[04:26.44]
[04:26.76]<II. Innocence>
[04:27.06]
[04:27.95]I remember a time
[04:31.60]My frail, virgin mind
[04:35.77]Watched the crimson sunrise
[04:40.32]Imagined what it might find
[04:44.73]Life was filled with wonder
[04:48.70]I felt the warm wind blow
[04:52.99]I must explore the boundaries
[04:57.05]Transcend the depth of winter's snow
[05:00.67]
[05:02.02]Innocence caressing me
[05:06.57]I never felt so young before
[05:11.53]There was so much life in me
[05:16.08]Still I longed to search for more
[05:23.66]
[05:29.72]But those days are gone now
[05:33.36]Changed like a leaf on a tree
[05:37.23]Blown away forever
[05:41.22]Into the cool autumn breeze
[05:45.10]The snow has now fallen
[05:48.65]And my sun's not so bright
[05:52.65]I struggle to hold on
[05:56.44]With the last of my might
[06:01.96]
[06:16.07]In my den of inequity
[06:19.66]Viciousness and subtlety
[06:23.71]Struggle to ease the pain
[06:27.97]Struggle to find the same
[06:31.81]
[06:32.82]Ignorance surrounding me
[06:37.38]I've never been so filled with fear
[06:42.41]All my life's been drained from me
[06:47.13]The end is drawing near...
[06:51.71]
[06:55.49]<III. Carpe Diem>
[07:03.52]
[07:07.36]"Carpe diem
[07:12.49]Seize the day"
[07:15.74]
[07:16.52]I'll always remember
[07:22.59]The chill of November
[07:28.52]The news of the fall
[07:31.84]The sounds in the hall
[07:34.67]The clock on the wall
[07:37.83]Ticking away
[07:40.01]"Seize the Day"
[07:41.92]I heard him say
[07:45.20]Life will not always be this way
[07:51.76]Look around
[07:54.18]Hear the sounds
[07:57.15]Cherish your life
[07:59.65]While you're still around
[08:06.46]
[08:12.96]("Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
[08:14.94](Old Time is still a-flying;)
[08:16.94](And this same flower that smiles today)
[08:19.04](Tomorrow will be dying")
[08:20.25]
[08:20.99]We can learn
[08:23.62]From the past
[08:26.32]But those days
[08:28.23]Are gone
[08:29.60]We can hope
[08:32.15]For the future
[08:35.70]But there might not be one
[08:40.92]
[08:47.59]The words stuck in my mind
[08:52.55]Alive from what I've learned
[08:57.85]I have to seize the day
[09:02.84]To home I returned
[09:05.88]
[09:28.03]Preparing for her flight
[09:30.36]I held with all my might
[09:33.04]Fearing my deepest fright
[09:35.58]She walked into the night
[09:38.14]She turned for one last look
[09:40.72]She looked me in the eye
[09:43.53]I said, "I Love You...
[09:47.13]Good-bye"
[09:48.07]
[09:48.98]("It's the most awful thing you'll ever hear")
[09:52.99]("If you're lying to me...")
[09:54.84]("Oh, you dearly love her")
[09:56.58]("...just have to leave...)
[09:58.34](All our lives")
[10:00.10]("Seize the day!")
[10:02.03]("Something happened")
[10:03.43]("Gather ye rosebuds while ye may")
[10:06.46]("She was killed")

[10:10.80]
[10:12.94]Instrumental
[13:02.26]
[13:03.44]<V. Another World>
[13:06.21]
[13:28.35]So far or so it seems
[13:34.39]All is lost
[13:37.22]With nothing fulfilled
[13:41.57]Off the pages and the
[13:44.26]T.V. screen
[13:47.33]Another world
[13:50.06]Where nothing's true
[13:53.37]
[13:54.71]Tripping through
[13:56.75]The life fantastic
[14:01.21]Lose a step
[14:03.18]And never get up
[14:07.69]Left alone
[14:09.72]With a cold blank stare
[14:14.89]I feel like giving up
[14:18.14]
[14:21.00]I was blinded by a paradise
[14:26.16]Utopia high in the sky
[14:34.17]A dream that only drowned me
[14:40.09]Deep in sorrow, wondering why
[14:45.80]
[14:47.12]Oh come let us adore him
[14:53.29]Abuse and then ignore him
[14:58.46]No matter what
[15:00.42]Don't let him be
[15:02.32]Let's feed upon his misery
[15:07.01]Then string him up for all the world to see
[15:11.28]
[15:11.81]I'm sick of all
[15:13.47]Your hypocrites
[15:15.42]Holding me at bay
[15:18.79]And I don't need
[15:20.11]Your sympathy
[15:22.16]To get me through the day
[15:24.40]
[15:24.93]Seasons change and so can I
[15:28.71]Hold on Boy
[15:29.83]No time to cry
[15:31.84]Untie these strings
[15:33.22]I'm climbing down
[15:36.85]I won't let them push me away
[15:44.10]
[16:32.03]Oh come let us adore him
[16:38.80]Abuse and then ignore him
[16:43.47]No matter what
[16:45.13]Don't let him be
[16:46.97]Let's feed upon
[16:48.45]His misery
[16:52.02]Now it's time for them
[16:56.20]To deal with me
[16:57.87]
[18:36.27]<VI. The Inevitable Summer>
[18:37.91]
[18:39.98]Instrumental
[20:10.77]
[20:13.00]<VII. The Crimson Sunset>
[20:16.99]
[20:36.46]I'm much wiser now
[20:38.70]A lifetime of memories
[20:41.63]Run though my head
[20:44.33]They taught me how
[20:47.19]For better or worse
[20:49.10]Alive or dead
[20:51.83]I realize
[20:54.13]There's no turning back
[20:55.92]Life goes on
[20:57.63]The offbeaten track
[21:03.69]
[21:19.42]I sit down with my son
[21:21.98]Set to see the Crimson Sunset
[21:25.51](Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
[21:30.45]Many years have come and gone
[21:33.27]I've lived my life, but now must move on
[21:36.39](Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
[21:41.95]He's my only one
[21:44.64]Now that my time has come
[21:47.58]Now that my life is done
[21:50.38]We look into the sun
[21:53.26]"Seize the day
[21:54.62]And don't you cry
[21:55.99]Now it's time
[21:57.45]To say good-bye
[21:58.87]Even though
[22:00.28]I'll be gone
[22:01.71]I will live on
[22:09.79]Live on"
