Hear the sounds of drums as we go to war
Their pounding in my head like a movie score
So what exactly is it we're fighting for
Give me reason to believe I chose the right door
I understand
Just about as much as you
On the other hand
What else can I do
But march in time with the beat of the marching band
Hold the conductor's wand tightly in my hand
As I wave my magic sword over sea and land
I'm just a little girl in a cosmic scheme so grand
I have to know
The grace of God is resting
In the fallen snow
So can I ask for your blessing
So my wings set me free as I flee my destiny
I'm tied down by tears, a frozen stream
All my life passes by, for when someone wants to die
You may hear a hidden silent scream
Hear the thunder of my heart as I play my role
And we all play our parts trapped inside this hole
When the world keeps on spinning but we lose the goal
It's cold and doesn't care that I've sold my soul
So hear I stand
Waiting to hear the rules
The hourglass sand
Is turning us to fools
I made a deal with the devil, yes I know this now
And I see you've done the same, so then tell me how
We might break out of this curse, or have you been cowed
Into going insane and breaking your vows
I've heard your woes
But the cracks are appearing
That's how it goes
I still can't find you endearing
So my wings set me free as I flee my destiny
I'm tied down by tears, a frozen stream
All my life passes by, for when someone wants to die
You may hear a hidden silent scream
People keep on chasing me
My feelings are disgracing me
This city skyline is on fire
The penalty of my desire
Caught inside a magic spell
Perforated and in hell
Desolate, alone I see
The mermaid is my destiny
The joke is all on me
I'm set for a calamity
No freedom left to be
I'm cast into the endless sea
So my wings set me free as I flee my destiny
I'm tied down by tears, a frozen stream
All my life passes by, for when someone wants to die
You may hear a hidden silent scream
Don't let pain guide your life, don't let it make the sacrifice
One that somebody else has to pay
Now before me in my sight I can see a shining light
And finally I'm on my way home
