There is a blood red circle
On the cold dark ground.
And the rain is falling down.
The church door's thrown open;
I can hear the organ's song.
But the congregation's gone.
My city of ruins.
My city of ruins. (Bruce Springsteen)

There is a blood red circle On the cold dark ground. And the rain is falling down. The church door's thrown open; I can hear the organ's song. But the congregation's gone. My city of ruins. My city of ruins.

"The clerk is dying, Rosemund is dying, you've all been exposed. Why shouldn't I give up hope?” "God has not abandoned us utterly,” he said. "Agnes is safe in his arms.” Safe, she thought bitterly. In the ground. In the cold. In the dark.

Avril Lavigne

He was falling between glacial walls, he didn't know how anyone could fall so far away from everyone else in the world. So far to fall, so cold all the way, so steep and dark between those morphine-colored walls of [an addict]'s terrible pit.

Nelson Algren

Go for it is the only way to be accepted to the circle of cold skulls the circle of your forefathers: Gilgamesh Hector Roland defenders of the kingdom of no frontiers and of the city of ashes Be faithful Go.
