MOTHER TURTLE lyrics : "The Elf"

Just another town
One more day, one more show
Playing the bitter clown

From dusk till the final bow

Even one glimpse of you

Makes my heart so hollow
Being a fool in everybody's eyes
Makes it hard to swallow


I never wanted to be perfect
But then again no one is

I never thought I'd be rejected
by all the freaks and even you


It's really not the distance
Not even the empty words
Walking on a burning rope

I can see how the story unfolds

I just want you to stay

I just need you to pray
No one saw, no one knew
You blamed me, I blamed you

You were so cold, you were so pale
Feeling nothing, not even pain


I just want you to stay
I just need you for one more day
They close the doors, they leave me here

My mind still missing, no one shed a tear
A voice inside, is my only friend
A crippled sound, until the end


Words felt so empty
As they crawled on my skin

They put the lights out
I still remember


Still haunted by nightmares
Still haunted by fear
I scream your name out

I pray for forgiveness

Staring at the empty walls

My hate feeds on sin
My hope is fading
But I can't escape it


Words still feel empty
My skin feels like dust

Moments are wasted
Just for one last time...
