Ran Red

I was swept away and I was not found

In metallic mud a child was drowned

A brown River Eden was not a death I chose

Though it was I who chose to stand so close

While dying in the dark I saw my father

Except it turned out to be my brother

Purple crystals were sat upon my gums

So I overdosed in the rain without my mum

I fought an almost impossible current

Before being stabbed in the chest

My sunken eyes resisted rolling back

And I saw what I refused to reinact

My determined right foot began to run red

My drenched left foot began to turn blue

A black River Clyde had burst its banks

I was finally reborn with myself to thank
