The Girl Between Dreams

00:00 04:47
LYRICS

The hallway narrows, lights grow dim

I don't remember entering in

A distant bell rings once, then twice

The walls blink back with borrowed eyes

The staircase ends against a wall

I hear a voice beyond it call

I follow it through peeling paint

The air grows thick, the lights grow faint

A doorway opens to the sea

The waves climb up the barren trees

I turn to find the way I came

The shore is gone, the walls have changed

Every turn erases where I've been

Every shadow lets another in

I tell myself the worst has passed

Then something moves behind the glass

Every time I turn around

The world has changed its face again

A silent scream, a shifting ground

A nightmare waiting round the bend

I run, it moves, I lose my way

The walls fold in, the lights decay

I turn around, there's something there

Another nightmare, another snare

A nursery drowned in midnight rain

A hundred dolls repeat my name

Their little heads begin to turn

Their painted smiles refuse to blur

The ceiling sinks, the floor gives way

The stairs twist back the way they came

I find a window, pull the frame

There's only darkness there again

The footsteps stop when I stand still

Then start again against my will

I hold my breath, I count to three

Something counts along with me

Every time I turn around

The world has changed its face again

A silent scream, a shifting ground

A nightmare waiting round the bend

I run, it moves, I lose my way

The walls fold in, the lights decay

I turn around, there's something there

Another nightmare, another snare

For one still moment, nothing moves

No distant cries, no changing rooms

I almost dare to take a breath

To trust the quiet, welcome rest

A footstep sounds behind my own

A voice whispers in a voice I know

I turn before it says my name—

And nothing here is quite the same

Every time I turn around

Another world comes crashing in

The sky falls down without a sound

And something stirs beneath my skin

No path to follow, no way through

No time to learn what waits ahead

I turn, and all the walls are new

I turn, and find another dread

The bell rings once

The lights go out

I hear it breathing

All around

I turn my head—

Another nightmare.

Never Out of Sight

00:00 05:22
LYRICS

Morning spills across the floor

Golden light beneath the door

Little flowers turn my way

Like they know I'm here to stay

Crystal petals fill the air

Tiny bells are everywhere

Every path is painted bright

Every step feels soft and light

I follow ribbons through the trees

They dance along the summer breeze

I don't know where they might go

For once, I don't need to know

Maybe I could stay awhile

Follow every winding mile

No need to wonder where I'll be

I'll follow where it carries me

Round and round, the colors fly

Little stars across the sky

Every road feels warm and bright

I'm never out of sight

Take my hand and lead me through

Every shade of pink and blue

I don't need to know what's right

I'm never out of sight

Didn't I pass that tree before?

Was there always one more door?

I could swear the flowers stare

I turn around—there's nothing there

The ribbons pull a little tight

I tell myself it's still all right

I choose the left, I swear I do

My feet still take me somewhere new

Maybe I should stop awhile

Why have I walked another mile?

I know I meant to turn back there

...Didn't I?

Round and round, the colors fly

I don't know the reason why

Every road bends left and right

Leading back into its sight

Take my hand—no, set me free

This isn't where I chose to be

Left or right, I try, I fight

I'm never out of sight

There's something strange about my hands

They move before I understand

One little step, another two

I can't tell what I chose to do

An unseen thread is pulling tight

It guides me farther from the light

I reach for it—there's nothing there

Just empty fingers, empty air

Don't turn around

Don't make a sound

Don't let it know

I know it now

The pretty world

The gentle light

Was never there to keep me safe

It only kept me in its sight

If I stand still, will it wait?

If I close my eyes, will it fade?

If I don't move, if I don't breathe

Could it forget that it sees me?

One...

Two...

Three...

Nothing.

I open my eyes.

The flowers are looking at me.

Round and round, the colors die

No more stars are in the sky

Every road bends left and right

To keep me always in its sight

Cut the thread, I feel it strain

I try to run, it pulls again

Every door, every turn, every night

Still it keeps me in its sight

Never hidden

Never free

Nowhere it cannot follow me

I was never out of sight

The ribbons sway

Though all is still

The flowers turn

Against my will

I don't know where I'm going now

Yet something knows the way somehow.
