Scarlet's Walk

Leaving... terra. Leaving... terra. Leaving... terra.
If you're a thought- you will want me to think you.
And I did, invited a guest up until,
You announced that you had moved in.

"What do you plan to do with all your freedom?"
The new sheriff said, quite proud of his badge.
You must admit the land is now in good hands,
Yes, time will tell that you just lift your lamp.

I will follow her on her path,
Scarlet's walk through the violets.
Just tell your Gods for me all debts are off this year.
They're free to leave, yes, they're free to leave.
Leaving... terra. Leaving... terra.

There was a time when I thought that,
Her destiny should've been mine.
Big brave nation, but instead,
Her medicine now forgotten.
"What do you plan to do with all your stories?"
The new sheriff said, quite proud of his badge.
We're weaving through every rocket's red glare,
And huddled masses, you just lift your lamp.

I will follow her on her path,
Scarlet's walk through the violets,
Just tell your Gods for me all debts are off this year.
They're free to leave, yes, they're free to leave...
Leaving... terra. Leaving... terra.

If you're a thought- you will want me to think you.
And I did, and I did.
