Analysis of Third Encounter (Part I)
When I was young
Something happened
It touched my soul
It scarred me for life
I can't remember
I suppress the thoughts
Of the ever after
I dreamt the dreams
I saw the twin moons
They hovered above me
The light shown great
I was whisked away
Locked in a lonely room
They marked my flesh
And broke my soul
They spoke my name
Left me for dead
When I awoke
The blood ran free
Orion I could see
