Lyrics
He proffers, she's offered a means to escape
Sweet melody, in harmony she finally lifts the weight
With a feeling so pure, This life she can endure
No memories, or reflection, but time for introspection
It was a simple time
With laughter, love and rhyme
No cares, no remorse
in this life, there's no recourse
She grins from ear to ear as she's finally free
She has been granted every little thing she needs
But time will not forgive as the Father gets his due
She could not foresee all the vileness that ensued
His wrath, a pox (a pox,) a plague (a plague,) alludes (eludes)
Her path, a sham (a sham,) a haze (a haze,) construed (construed)
His wrath, a pox (a pox,) a plague (a plague,) alludes (eludes)
Her path, a sham (a sham,) a haze (a haze,) construed (construed)
He proffers, she's offered a means to escape
Dark inflection, insurrection of the mind
With feelings so mundane, driven slowly insane
Incessant paranoia lingers in her brain
It was a wretched time
With sadness, life so unkind
hopeless, with no support
in this life, only remorse
He grins from ear to ear as she finally bends the knee
She has been striped of every little thing she needs
But time will not forgive as the Father gets his due
She could not foresee all his circuitous clues
His wrath, a pox (a pox,) a plague (a plague,) alludes (eludes)
Her path, a sham (a sham,) a haze (a haze,) construed (construed)
His wrath, a pox (a pox,) a plague (a plague,) alludes (eludes)
Her path, a sham (a sham,) a haze (a haze,) construed (construed)
Dancing in the moonlight it's the blind leading the blind
Blissful ignorance as they careen towards their demise
Youthful arrogance, bountiful mind bending delights
Audacious laughter lifted up to the nights sky
Led down the sinuous trail, begat from raising hell
Smoke and mirrors
