Track seven of TtM
LYRICS
YUKI:
He said the woods were such a dangerous place
It made no difference if it was night or day
LEN:
I don't know how something with this beauty could hold danger
LEN, ELEANOR:
But in this place, I see that I'm a stranger
ELEANOR:
When you spend your whole life living
In a glass dome
Everything you see is through a lens
Everything that's there is all there will be
Nothing's ever past your present tense
LEN:
He said there's nothing for you outside these walls
TRIO:
But there is so much here for me to be wary of
LEN:
I hear a snap
ELEANOR:
A crack and I
BOTH:
Don't know what it is
TRIO:
I hear a growl and a hiss that I just can't dismiss
When you spend your whole life living
In a glass dome
Everything you see is through a lens
Everything that's there is all there will be
Nothing's ever past your present tense
Don't you ever want to live?
Don't you ever want to go beyond?
Even if it means getting torn apart
Doesn't something out there still call your soul?
The human condition of wanting more
The downfall of everything that came before
The call of the void that we can't control
The way that we think that if we fall then we fall
ELEANOR:
Cause when you spend your whole life living
In a glass dome
LEN:
Everything you see is through a lens
YUKI:
You can't think anything could ever be different
Outside of it
TRIO:
Far too conditioned by your present tense
But he doesn't cry when he says it
There's no tremble to his hands
And he doesn't seem to be nervous
About anything else in these lands
And it makes you start to wonder
If it's all just paranoid
Cause we're all just kids who grew up too fast
Just to fill our tailored voids
When you spend your whole life living
In a glass dome
Everything you see is through a lens
Everything that's there is all there will be
Nothing's ever past your present tense
