Red lyrics?

Zach already posted a message about the lyrics of the chorus of Red, but I can't figure out most of the song... Help?

Here's my best guess, though it'll probably take some fixing polishing by the author. Parts I'm uncertain about are in italics. Cool liquid passes my lips From the fountain by the crypts Taste the water, expected clear What I found filled me with fear Red The maze upon my fingertips leave marks upon the stone behind her head Stained blade rests upon the ground Still-warm fingers twisted round Red feathers fan downstream Through the water, from her veins Red The maze upon my fingertips leaves marks upon the stone behind her head Blue The color of her lips increase the age upon my face a fold of two Maybe someday better, let her find a better way They came to get her, had to drag her from the waterway ...solo... Something water, once flowed with life Worships her body like a shrine Something something, something something Take away what once was mine Red The maze upon my fingertips leaves marks upon the stone behind her head Blue The color of her lips increase the age upon my face a fold of two

Just listened to it again, and it's pretty clear in the last verse that the line I drew a blank on is "Cool liquid fingers caress her spine/Take away what once was mine".

Yes. and now, years later, you can look in the lyrics section!
