Absent Minded

Baby wings

Show you the power
AND how many
are living in success?
Inner child stillborn
self esteem frozen
I'll melt away
the baby will get it's wings
the baby will get it's wings

Can we play now
Are we alone
Do you want to see me inside
Do you have something lost inside
Are you falling from destiny
who is vain and greedy and shallow
Cold and one day abandoned alone
ina pergatory she will call home
And this is all you got
This is everything that you bought
This is everything that you wanted
these are the places to which you belonged
these are the places you have haunted

Rescue me from these sheltered screams of injustice
Drown me in this bitter memory
Wake up and rise from your slumber
oh master IT, IT has come
And now is the time
the world is hollowed

Feel it gripping you in
Under your lovel shallow hollow selfish beautiful skin
Feel it melt down
like the wax from the flame of a candled chant
Feel your heart pound
feel between the sounds
never let your soul drown

ask the witches
ask the witches

they will say

The baby yes the baby
the baby will get its wings
the baby will get its wings
