Reality (Is This Real)

On a bookshelf in a secret room
there’s a knight there
between the dust and debris
my soul sits comfortably
In the midst there’s a castle
dragons lurk in the dark
my Prince calls for his army
this war is about to start
Is this real
or is this reality just a dream
my nightmare for eternity
is this real or is it a dream
please darling won’t you love me
Fire’s burning outside my window
warriors dance in the dark
my prince releases an arrow
and now it’s pierced my heart
Is this real
or is this reality just a dream
my nightmare for eternity
is this real or is it a dream
please darling won’t you love me
And I’ll shatter as it falls
the rocks crumble and I’m torn
I’ll close my eyes and slip away
and you’ll think that I’m gone
Is this real
or is this reality just a dream
my nightmare for eternity
is this real or is it a dream
please darling won’t you love

Only One

Honey, let’s take a walk
through the parklands where we used to listen to birds talk
I need to tell you through and through
don’t think i wouldn’t find out, I know the things that you do
I’ve had my doubts right from the start
little thoughts in my head telling me not to give you my heart
but you took it, added to your collection
that you don’t return, and it hurts so much it burns
I’m not the only one that you lend your time to
I shielded my eyes from the sun wishing it wasn’t true
Look at the birds, the pigeons they stay together, forever
I want to wake up by your side
without the fear in your eyes that I will recognise
I’m not the only one that you lend your time to
I shielded my eyes from the sun wishing it wasn’t true
I might release to the world that you're a fraud
I had to blink twice to understand all that I saw
I’m not the only one that you lend your time to
I shielded my eyes from the sun wishing it wasn’t true

What Was I To You?
04:42
|

You’re a loud noise in my mind preventing my sleep at night
staring at the ceiling deep in thought
do you think about me?
are you thinking of me now?
What was I to you?
mixed you for someone I thought I knew
you came, you left
am I another regret?
oh what, what was I to you?
thought we had something special
you’re just superficial
You fooled me good this time
got me believing your little lies
you loved my body but not my mind
I just have to say, do you even have a heart
What was I to you?
mixed you for someone I thought I knew
you came, you left
am I another regret?
oh what, what was I to you?
thought we had something special
you’re just superficial
I stayed up late reading the same things ten times over
with the usual ten things going round and round my head
over and over and over again
over and over and over again
What was I to you?
mixed you for someone I thought I knew
you came, you left
am I another regret?
oh what, what was I to you?
thought we had something special
you’re just superficial
You're a loud noise in my mind
preventing my sleep at night

Tree

The lonely tree, a lonely tree
the only tree in the meadow
it sways in the wind, it dances
to the lonely song of the meadow
There is a girl, a lonely girl
beneath the tree in the meadow
you can hear her sing, you can hear your sing
the lonely song of the meadow
Oh, she calls for an angel of the lord
Oh, demons were the only ones that heard
And now she sings herself to sleep
gently caressing the solitary tree
with lonely melodies
The moon glows, the moon glows
down upon the meadow
she walked away, she walked away
the only way she knows
Oh, she calls for an angel of the lord
Oh, demons were the only ones that heard
And now she sings herself to sleep
gently caressing the solitary tree
with lonely melodies

Telescope

I once went to the sea
asked it of my destiny
to which it could not tell me
so it taught me this melody
Oh, through my telescope
I saw your boat
you sailed the ocean blue
and that’s when I knew
One, two, three, come with me
through the forest of histories
we can go dancing
listen; the song of the trees
Oh, through my telescope
I saw your boat
you sailed the ocean blue
and that’s when I knew
