The Red World

I tried to escape from this red world
I wished to lead a new life in reality
But when I attempted to break free
I realized that there was no way out

I’m trapped forever in this world
Until the color red flows into me
All the other colors will melt away
And I will be a part of the red world

Even at night time, the sun is there
I can neither dream nor can I sleep

The stars light the crimson sky
The autumn light fades and reappears
And the scarlet roses flourish in blood
In the midst of this scarlet world

I’m trapped forever in this world
Until the color red flows into me
All the other colors will melt away
And I will be a part of the red world

Even at night time, the sun is there
I can neither dream nor can I sleep

If I paint with the color grey
Will the color red fade away?
Would I live in a grey world?
A world of coldness and wrath

Even if I could create a new world,
The red world would be forever there
