Blood Soaked Opal
Written, performed, and produced by Sarah Afshar
[Verse 1]
In the dark of shattered thought, I roam
Under fractured skies and venomous moonlight
A glint of crimson gem concealed beneath robes
Of delicate skin, a sigil of impending night
Whispers coil around my scarred desire
A twisted ballet of shadows on crumbling walls
Unseen gazes follow with relentless fire
Guilty secrets whisper as the darkness calls
[Chorus]
Blood soaked opal, burning in my veins
Haunted by silent footfalls amid the rain
A searing ember caught inside a gilded cage
Tethered to a phantom’s cold, unyielding gaze
[Verse 2]
Through alleys where decay and seduction meet
My heart pounds against tides of sinister fate
A spectral presence dances with each beat
Drawn ever closer by a force I cannot abate
Raven wings and spectral whispers trace my path
Every echo guiding me toward a darker state
An enigma wrapped in secrets, aftermath
Of a fractured soul lured by an unseen weight
[Bridge]
Cold intent weaves a relentless art
In the depths of an ever-twisting, endless maze
Tangled within the silence that grips my heart
A ghostly force inscribes the lines of my days
[Bridge]
man to ra mikhāham. vāqe'an to ra mikhāham. be to niyāz dāram. to ra hass mikonam.
To man ra nemishenasi. Man dalayel-e ziyadi baraye zendegi kardan daram.
Opal khoon-alood dar ghalb-e man misoozad va rooham dar atash ast.
[Chorus]
Blood soaked opal, burning in my veins
Haunted by silent footfalls amid the rain
A searing ember caught inside a gilded cage
Tethered to a phantom’s cold, unyielding gaze
[Outro]
In the final gasp of night’s desperate cry
I dissolve beneath a watchful, sinister glow
A tale of love and terror that can’t comply
Upon the surface of a fractured soul below
And in the mirror of the unyielding, endless night
Fades the mark of a blood soaked opal light…
