The Bloody Ballet

I slowly close my eyes to fall asleep
I hope to have such hopeful dreams
This price I pay is far too steep
I awake to see the red light beams
I see dancers with masks all around
Men with knives as hands or eyes blood red
While I sit on the ground
I now know that I am certainly dead
I stand now with fear in my heart
A man walks up to take a stand
I must run but I know I cannot part
The man now takes my hand
A ballet I now dance
He whispers that I am now a part of the house of red
I have no chance
I hope this is all in my head
I dance and dance till my feet can't anymore
I cry now, cold and alone
Sitting on the dance floor
My heart now broken, never to be sewn
I close my eyes and pray
I hear the sound all disappear
I know I must not stay
I open my eyes to see I'm here

Here in my bed away from my fear.....
