Summary: Painful recollections of a world that's meant to be

Red

I see the flames caress you, licking, dancing over your body.

They consume your flesh, releasing your spirit to the Force

I pull my hood further over my face so that no-one can see my pain, my tears

Red

I see the tattooed face of the demon who slew you

The taunting, evil glint in his eye. The snarl of his face

I pull my hood further over my face so that no-one can see my pain, my fear

Red

I see the darkness that surrounds us, shrouded in mystery

Feel it burning through my veins, coursing through me, igniting my body

I pull my hood further over my face so that no-one can see my pain, my anger

Red

I see the future, clear as day

Our world consumed with darkness, with evil. Life as we know destroyed by the Sith

I pull my hood further over my face so that no-one can see my pain, my dread

Red

I see the fire slowly dying down

Glowing embers hissing as the cold air hits them

I pull my hood further over my face so that no-one can see my pain, my relief

My relief that you have escaped, that you are free

Never to live through the dark domination

I pull my hood further over my face so that no-one can see my pain

THE END
