The keeper of the late won't let me in because I'm late
The land of Oz on the other side, screaming with selfish pride
forgive me, I'm sorry but needs a mother and daddy needs a lover
Let this be our last dance
I'll take your hand and give you my magic snails
to the music we make when all else fails
The land of Oz

The stagecoach is waiting outside the castle debating
-We should leave before the storm-
looking at your reflection in all of your perfection
(Your mirror drops to the floor in your room
I sweep it up so you don't get cut)
They don't want us together
and your favorite dress is torn
after this night, it'll never be worn again

Stitching away with a needle
my hands shake and are feeble
the only way to restore a gown
the music stops and I hear the sound...
of your voice in harmony
it seams I've found you as somebody else
and hurtful things will happen to the ones you love
hurtful things will happen to the ones you love

I heard you from over there
and it was like you didn't care
but when we meet again
we'll throw our sins, to the sky

Let us love, like we were young...
when I had hands
we had planned our lives
but I know it's not that simple
I will lead you to a place beyond these walls and temple
(Buried in the loft of oz)

I have given up
because you've given into me
I can only do so much
when all I know is abuse
and all I've gotten was neglect
when all I wanted was respect

These doors creak and in my dreams she speaks
I'm scared and alone, these thoughts I've sewn
take away these thoughts I slay
and I think to myself it will all go away
one day

Let's throw some love in the mix of things
and I'll see what I can change
(I escape)
Like porcelain dolls on an antique shelf
When we do this to ourself
and I don't ever wanna go back
to face myself again
when these walls are closing in

Walking towards a tree draping over me
when will we be free from the world we're blind to see
the leaves fall to ground, she leaves without a sound
the leaves fall to ground, she leaves without a sound

Don't worry about me
I am only what you see
the odds are against me
just let it be
I will persevere
I will make it out of here
I've been here before
I know that my hands are for
my fingers are frayed
from the nights that you stayed
and eventually left
