The Red Priestess
The Red Priestess
Within my dark dreams she always appears and......
She sends me deep spiritual treasures
to read and absorb
By my mind's
Scrying Mirrors
In the silvery moonlights many reflective walls
Which are in plain view
but just hidden from all
My crimson priestess from the Red Church
With a multitude of dark
confessional rooms
Hidden from mortal eyes
Above and below
Only known to them
Who are truly
In the know
Come listen and hear my calls
And join me upon my quest
She always whispers when I dream
There's a red room in here
With silk sheets adorned
with diamonds and gold
Where you can be my guest forever
Until you are old
I'll send you ancient spells to drive your success
Compassion and kindness
To leave for others to follow in your footsteps
I await in the deep ravines
Currently unexplored by you
Look deep within yourself tonight
With the thinning of the veil between your world and mine
After the stroke of midnight
And
I'll appear before your eyes and claim your mind
I'll take you back
Through the dark corridors of the hidden cities and towns
To the Red Church
of Such Spiritual Salvation
And there
I will trace my soft fingertips
Along your new road maps to a new recovery
and tempestuous realms
Of such redemption
That you will stay and never return
But it's here in this room
Your bedroom
Tonight
Your ticket you'll earn
