Analysis of Flame of life

Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)



In the rain of nightmares, songs of past
I barely managed to close my eyes
Rain is shining like I never seen before
But it doesn't matter anymore
Flame has changed its colour to white
Are there any more reasons to fight?
I feel down just in time when I should be fine
I don't know anymore , I think I have crossed the line
Isn't that too much for just this thing I've done
All I know is that even with this scar I must go on
Maybe it's not too late to repair the sins
But I can't dream about it even in my dreams
I recieved a letter that judged me
I became realesed , I was free
But then just when I smiled
Someone shoot me and I cried
Just when i obtained it like never before
But it doesn't matter anymore
Cause crimson flame hangs above
