Queen's Roads

Bella rises, looking at her reflection on a pool of water
All is calm. Still, she musters the courage to confront Absalom
She follows him along the railroad tracks
A shadow on the desert horizon. Suddenly
There is no one. Absalom’s vanished
He was once inside her, he was her
No more. Back to the railroad tracks
Bella finds a sleeping Alex beside the broken guitar
She tries to play a little, and cuts her finger
She lets the blood fall on the sand and then buries it
The cycle of reincarnation is broken
They can finally be whomever they want to

Gazing through the Mirror
Deep into these eyes
I see the image
But who is inside?
I see the image
And who am I?

And I wonder where these Queen’s Roads are gonna take me
But I trust the Love of a Maiden
And I wonder where these Queen’s Roads are gonna take me
But I trust the Maiden

Riding the desert (riding through Faerie)
Absalom’s fading
I am my dearest (riding through Faerie)
I am my enemy!

And I bury my heart under the red sand
Yet I still feel it aching
And I bury my heart under the red sand
It’s the darkness within me

Free from the Khrónos, free from the Aion
We are the Kairós
You and me together, you and me together
Together as one

Shhhsh. A hushed flutter of wings
A little owl lands on Alex’s head
Its grey eyes gaze mischievously into Bella’s
Athena?
