Amnestia Mistress of Crimson Halls

Heavy doors lock behind her
Dark water floods the floor
She keeps the keys to every secret
But can’t remember what they’re for
A hungry dark is growing wider
Taking all that she can find
Looking for a piece of heaven
In a place she left behind

Mistress of the scarlet room
Give us what we need
Mistress of the scarlet room
The only way to feed
Temptress of the lonely soul
Queen of all desire
Mistress of the scarlet room
Burning in the cold

The walls are high and made of velvet
To hide the way she really feels
A daughter waiting for a gesture
Before the final curtain seals
She trades a kiss for something solid
Just to fill the empty space
But the abyss is never quiet
And it has no human face

Mistress of the scarlet room
Give us what we need
Mistress of the scarlet room
The only way to feed
Temptress of the lonely soul
Queen of all desire
Mistress of the scarlet room
Burning in the cold

Unloved child in a crown of thorns
Selling back the light
Every heart she ever took
Disappears into the night
She is looking for a home
In a house of stone

Mistress of the scarlet room
Give us what we need
Mistress of the scarlet room
The only way to feed
Temptress of the lonely soul
Queen of all desire
Mistress of the scarlet room
Burning in the cold
