lyrics

A caterpillar sheds skin and morphs into a pupa
The darkness that is within could fill up a jar
The clock that's always ticking, the sound that plays in your head
Reminding you it's passing, until all is dead

I am looking for someone who can see through these lies
The shadows that haunt me know how to disguise
Forgive me, old father, I am not who you want
Forgive me, the angels who have watched me till dawn

The face I always try on forsakes the colour inside
The cloak that I have forgone flies back full of pride
Collecting all of our sins, and hide them under ocean
Pretend they've not been seen, ignore the omen

Will you stay for a while
With the flowers of the Nile?
Cry away, cry away
Until the day that you're okay
Show me all of your scars
And let them shine under the stars
Cry away, cry away
Until the day that we're okay
