Will you come with me for a moment? Will you stay? Lie to me and tell me you will never go away? [Spoken Word Female speaks] They say "a little girl looks for her father in the potential lover she might choose" foolish wives' tale I'm sure Useless information, never to use besides that seems really gross! I have never known my father perhaps that affected me the most Everything he never gave a foundation that I stood upon Not because I believed in them but because I knew it was wrong Brick by break I built my walls The only hope that survived my falls I covered them (a roof) To keep them from escaping An enclosure (containing what I deeply wanted) empty, (because of what I didn't have) (Reinforcement) I swore I would never need And to be safe (was it for safety) I barred the windows, put locks on the doors And threw away the keys (understanding) No one was ever going to see inside, (my heart) or be familiar with the contents, no security breach, (too close) no tear down to rebuild (I would not yield) I disguised the truth (by decorating the interior) furnished with fine things, All the things my father never brings An improvision perhaps or some degree of misrepresentation but without confrontation [Chorus seductive, moody, tremble heard in the vocals, inquisitive] Will you come with me for a moment? Will you stay? Lie to me and tell me you will never go away? Lie to me in crimson I'll paint them in white Tell me that you love me even if only for tonight tell me you will stay tell me you will never go away [Verse] I built a formidable fortress The nothingness (i Coveted) was ever going to be able to get in I built it around the little girl standing on her beliefs swearing what she would never need(anyone) no one would know what I wanted (or anything) I built it all Nothing was going to penetrate these walls Including me but a hunger called (I wanted you) one I couldn't name (is that bad) nor could I refuse (need to use) (I don't hate you) really I don't (i hate my Dad) something I can't have but you said you loved me, and wanted to give me what I never had You said I could have you And that turned out BAD And now the best years of my life are gone As is the resistance the resilience the fight A pile of rubble is what I now fall upon The canvas was complete some time ago all the things no one will ever know (you won't tell) it made its way to the art exhibit Featuring a formidable structure Unbreakable it seems this body I inhibit I now lay where I once stood I tried to get out of these walls But I never could In the end I am a cheater I turned out just like my dad And ended up cheated By the life I never had [bridge] Lie to me (you did) tell me you will never go away? [you did] Lie to me in crimson (most certainly did) I'll paint you in white ( i did) Tell me that you love me (did you) even if only for tonight but I have you forever (i made sure) you can never go away (not from me) I needed you (now you see) Blood cannot be kept from me neither was "Daddy" [OUTRO ominous, minimal instrumentation, echoes fade ] Through The Barred windows Eyes can be seen peering in Dust and rodents and an empty picture frame But not a soul within one can still hear The faint tapping of a hammer won't you please come in? come with me for a moment And we will begin (you already know the rest} Lie to me in crimson (most certainly did) I'll paint you in white ( i did) Tell me that you love me (did you) even if only for tonight [End] *Any synchronicities duplicated or revealed are purely and simply that, and if you don't notice them than I am just extremely paranoid or read way too much into almost everything. If you are wondering, yes, I was and I did, then deleted and decided I would just let it roll, several things happened at once things got weird for a moment jimmy kha Get Out listen to it it took me places of course only in my mind-but sometimes its just too much chaos....that's all for now-this is Opaque
