Lonely Hide & Seek

Cue the opening scene, starting at page one, a story
About a lying clown who ended up a comedy, standing in laughing rain
Dirty water staring back at me, nothing but a bitter mirroring
Calm and quiet painted everyday five hundred shades of grey
Amplifying every love affair love the taste although there's nothing there
Whether dreaming or reality hive minded symphony

Draw it in the bookmark of the end
Bursting through the seams, the game we play is seeming to be
I brought it all to life, a real fantasy
And ready to take the fruit from the tree
Bite the hands that fight for even a taste
Slowly going insane, choking my brain
Ascending after rain, back to just the same
It's laughing at me, shaking shadow that breathes
All I wanted was a turn of the page to get by

Breaking boredom, and I'm killing time
Why not play a game? A normal line
Calm and quiet painted everyday, oh we'll fix that right away!

Demon hiding ever watching eyes, tasting iron like it's gonna slice
Silk is red and ready in it's place, is it time to start the game?
In the hand, a ticket to the show
Ticking of the clock, the hand, it takes your eyes from you

It's ready steady go, we're playing hide and seek
I guess that the first to be it is me
Crying noise, the TV talking to me
I see it's not a game, the real thing!
120's more than easy to be beat
Laughing away, you say this eagerly
You're up next to play the monster referred to as it

Suddenly I heard something really abnormal
Talking on about some people living, dead, or soon to be
Now the one to die today is the innocent you
Is that a fact? B premonition? But your face won't give away

Look now I've had enough, look now you've seen too much
So let us start the final chapter as we turn the page

Aa, ready? Here I come! Aa, ready? Here I come!
You're ready or you're not, it doesn't matter, here I come!

I brought it all to life, a real fantasy
And dying away, the fruit in the tree
Falling like the rain that sweeps me away
Leading me blind, a paranormal find
I'm playing all alone, eyeing my demise
But that isn't right, summer's shadow is by
With a grin, the demon breaking their lips muttered

Well, looks like I win

It's ready steady go! We're playing hide and seek
But who is the demon we really seek?
Prologue read aloud in sarcasm all about
How do you play the perfect crime?
A rumor in the Sun, a game for only one
The cat on the bookmark returns again
You're up next to play the monster referred to as it
