As the shadows blow,
We dive into
The tide of yesterday
When the colours bloom
To bleed away,
We hide inside the fright
In resistance of understanding
Today, we die
While the story of us
Is written on,
We're reading ancient tales
And the more you think
To know 'bout me,
The more i disappear
Acting for the perfect picture
Go ahead and choose;
I'm already dead
Follow the traces that lead to nowhere
Away from the dirt,
Away from here
From you
Chasing the image of paradise maimed
Come close to the dream,
And lose reality
With me
And every name you give me
I illuminate,
And slowly turn to air
And anytime I try to hold you tight
You slip away like sand
Applauding the sleeping audience
Hurray
We are gone
Follow the traces that lead to nowhere
Away from the dirt,
Away from here
From you
Chasing the image of paradise maimed
Come close to the dream,
And lose reality
With me
Highward stars
And broadway queens
The jackpot hits,
In air o dreams
The vast ideas
Of genius minds
The "Who is who?"
Of Olympus' stride
I wrap my head
In crimson skies
We drink champagne,
To the grace of light
And soon beware, I should,
You'll find
Let's fuse to the sun
In a melt of hellfire
Follow the traces that lead to nowhere
Away from the dirt,
Away from here
From you
Chasing the image of paradise maimed
Come close to the dream,
And lose reality
With me
Enter my dream and lose reality
