Jabberwocky - Fear Before The March of Flames

There are things, there are creatures about

With big hands and cavernous mouths

That’s what I’m afraid of these days

I pulled the wings off a bat today

I saw myself in her as she limped away

That’s what I’m afraid of these days

There are things, things that only I see

There are creatures, and they’re out to get me

That’s what I’m afraid of these days

Glued some wings to the back of a spider

Looked up for validation, but I could not find it

No one’s more scared than I am these days

So say it 'cause I can see it

You’ve got the look of a skeptic in headlights

So shall I go on?

Have I gone on too long?

«Cue the music 'cause this speaker is scaring the kids»

«The children are trembling»

Rightfully so, rightfully so

Pray tell me again because there’s a nest in my ear

And one behind my eyes

Obscurity and his family

Are having their fun with my poor mind

They’ve made a mess of my vision

And a mess of my sight

I should have been seeing friends

So say it 'cause I can see it

You’ve got the look of a believer on trial

So shall I go on?

Have I gone on too long?

Cue the music 'cause I’m starting to scare myself

«The children are trembling»

Rightfully so, rightfully so

So say it 'cause I can see it

You’ve got the look of a skeptic in headlights

So shall I go on?

Have I gone on too long?

Cue the lights because the darkness is taking its toll
