In this harried life
Better to stay alone . . .
—then it's over

Avoiding
Petrified and badgered
Day by day
Once here and then you're gone

Breaking down, beguiling
Everyone's in hiding
Suspicion reigns
Charity denied

Run away, it follows
To the choicest hollows
The more you pray
The more it finds it's way

However does it choose?
—those with everything to lose
Escape? No way . . .
Ignorance IS breeding more decay

Where Blood Roses bloom
Virtue cannot flower
No point in fighting

Hope is the only way
