The Yellow sun shines…
So bright it blinds…
And its warmth reminds…
 
Of better days…
Such innocent ways…
 
That the youth just handle…
With no fear of scandal…
 
And the truth was hidden…
Just right and wrong,
not forbidden…
The apple unbitten…

Eyes closed to Satan…
Oblivious to the Raven…
 
But it’s so different now…
We lost our way somehow…
 
Turned left in a haze…
Became lost in the maze…
Went missing for days…
 
Gave into temptation…
Then prayed for salvation…
And stopped at each station…
 
But there’s no one in sight…
No end to this fight…
And as day becomes night…
 
He’s there…
In the shadows, I swear…
 
Watching and waiting…
Ruthless, never hesitating…
 
Hatching his plan…
On women and on man…
Knowing where this began…

And how it will end…
Listening to us defend…
As reality twists and transcends…

With tears in our eyes…
No mask, no disguise…
As each guilty lie…

Is spoken…
Given wings and awoken…

And cast into the air…
Naked and bare…
Whilst tied to the chair…
Try escape if we dare…
But to where…

There’s nowhere to go…
Avoiding the eyes of the crow…
In this fucked up peep show…

We are trapped…
Accept that fact…

As the Yellow sun shines…
So bright it blinds…
And its warmth reminds…
 
Of innocent days…
