(Alyac Flower), Part II
Do you see the flashing lights?
I can hear them coming....
Take her be-low!
For her own safety.
They might throw-stones!
Who are they chasing?
No one will-know!
Let's not be hasty,
Now they are coming, searching for you....
And my only thought:
PleaseDon'tLetMeGetInTrouble!
But my anxiety:
IncreasesUntilItDoubles!
All that I had sought:
CrumblesDown,AndTurnsToRubble!
And your so-called propriety:
BurstsInAir,JustLikeABubble!
Don't be afraid,
Ev'rything will be okay....
Just go with the-flow!
Don't act suspicious.
It all feels so-slow!
I'm feeling auspicious.
Don't put on a-show!
But the feeling's pernicious.
Now they are coming, searching for you....
And my only thought:
PleaseDon'tLetMeGetInTrouble!
But my anxiety:
IncreasesUntilItDoubles!
All that I had sought:
CrumblesDown,AndTurnsToRubble!
And your so-called propriety:
BurstsInAir,JustLikeABubble!
Residue,
All We need is Residue.
It's all on You,
Now that your coming to.
Don't even move.
What are you gonna do?
Tell me the truth,
Who are the Few?
Don't even say my name,
Don't even think about it....
No one will ever find out,
No one will ever know.
No one will find out,
No one will know.
