lyrics

I’ve gone to
A shabby hut
Hidden in the woods.

Inside of it
A woman baked
An apple pie:

“Darling, have a bite
And you’ll find
What they veil”

I taste
Rotten lie
With each bite
I try…

Though now I
Cannot shout,
Truth will out
Some day…

I took my way
Deep to the ocean
(Its welcome wasn’t warm).

Fought its grey
Commotion
(Its mighty waves, its blazing storm).

Someone whispered
My name –
Whether fish have
Voice?

Took at face value
Mermaid’s tales,
But her kiss
Was double-tongued.

I taste
Rotten lie
With each bite
I try

Though now I
Cannot shout
Truth will out
Some day

Two-faced
Crawling semi-snake,
Keeping answers in sagacious eyes,
Your omniscience

Makes me freeze
Hypnotized.

Am I right
(Yes, you’re right)

That they lied?
(Yes, they lied)

Once again
This guessing game
(This goddamn game)…

Now I’ve had enough.


Look at me,
Liar,
Don’t you see:

Though now your thousand heads feel might,

Get ready for fight,
My sword craves to bite.

You mock at my searching,
Sneer at my restless mind.

Who do you think you are?
Why do you think you’re right?

One day you’ll be decrowned.
