[Intro] [upright piano, walking bass, woodblock accents] [Verse 1] [theatrical baritono female vocals] I'm floating in the dark When no one is around I see you like a dead Dirty clothes, dirty heart Can you see yourself? I see you I'm round you [Chorus] [piano stabs, rhythmic woodblock] Tap-tap-tap-tap-tap Trap beneath your cover Time is over [Verse 2] Once upon a time there was a little egg Hidden behind a leaf, no sun, no leg The shell was cracked, the worm had come It wants its wings, it wants its sun He wanted to become a butterfly in clover But fate, you see, turned him over Life is strange, we never know Will we rise or stay below? [Chorus] [upright piano, walking bass] Tap-tap-tap-tap-tap Trap beneath your cover Time is over [Verse 3] I think the time is gone, the fires out You sparked with joy, you crawled too long, you lost your pace Now you're stuck in the same place But I had dreams I used to try And now I'm just another fly At the end the worm did fly But not in grace, just scraping by It was then spun, it wasn't wise One day it fell in a trap for flies [Chorus] [piano stabs] Tap-tap-tap-tap-tap Dreams that rot and hover Time is over [Bridge] [tempo slows, sustained piano chords, atmospheric] This is not the story I told The dream is burnt, the bed is cold The darkness came and I am small Like an ant behind a glass wall [Outro] [tempo speeds up to original, piano enters] The whispers in the sky Told me I could die Can you hear me through the sound? I see you, I'm round you Dude [piano stabs] Tap-tap-tap-tap-tap Trap beneath your cover Time is over
