Lyrics for Embers, Blood and Treasure
Kiku and embers scattered, a knife at an absent bedside Six coins for the crossing, laid out to the West The waters of the last moment, a name inked in red Piper Lou offered in madness by Sheryl to the vacuum But she's reunited with ashes and another promise dies Like the Deloyer 7 We're offered up for terms And Camille Vidan's parents were they casualties of war? To steal back this last betrayal Cashim hits the self destruct Cemeteries walled around (The ones) who died for your sins Your best intentions forgot Times out in the end The gaze of the dead can't be taken back They stare piercingly from heaps tied in barbed wire
