There was a time When I thought that birds were the only ones to fly Denial is a prison There was a time When you and I were just the perfect rhyme But denial is a comfort And I can't wait to fly There was a time When I thought a word was enough to cure a doubt Let them go or leave them shout I cannot wait to run Through the streets of madness Is it a crime that I'm happy without illness And I won't ever grow tired

Out of woods she came Like a child left to be untamed Sweet madness to be obtained Here is ancient game Waking Out of the lines she'd walked And ambiguous paths were taken Though words are the ones of luck Once again are the feelings Waking Little Red Hiding Head Kept along with the nonsense Finding pride in the name of Love And so the tale goes on Out of the shame she came With the old hearts of those she'd taken They had torn the cards of blame And new instincts were now Awaken Little Red Hiding Head Kept along with the nonsense Finding pride in the name of Love And so the tale goes on Into the woods again Like a wild child to be restrained Sweet blindness to be obtained Here is the ancient game Waking

She taught herself to miss the ones she loved Before they were gone Discovered ways to grow through skies That lived with no sun Off the ground Out of mind Gone to places which cannot be found Off the ground Out of mind Gone to islands where no soul could stand She’ll be waiting for a fall Or for a call from foreign countries She’ll be running off with creatures That live only through fantasy Follow the beast That can’t be named in such a city Until she’s Fallen behind the horizon He gave himself the word to endure Whatever the illness And found a way to ease his head Once hers was at rest Far gone over From her father To temples where he could not preach Far gone over From her father To islands that he could not reach She’ll be waiting for a fall Or for a call from foreign countries She’ll be running off with creatures That live only through fantasy Follow the beast That can’t be named in such a city Until she’s Fallen behind the horizon

Layers 03:14
Off today you go To another place you know The hours fly and give birth to Old shadows The city starts to glow Not enough to show You have no where to go when you're Already home How many layers down Will you hide your scars How many layers down Have you buried yourself You will be running away from what you can 'til it rushes back to your mind and starts going Round and round Back to mind Coming back for more Your past is getting bored You hope to hush it down until Tomorrow Tomorrow comes once more Along with hopes of war And so you make yourself be Forgetful How many layers down Will you hide your scars How many layers down Have you buried yourself You will be running away from what you can 'til it rushes back to your mind and starts going Round and round Back to mind Round and round Back to mind
