Right now, in the heat of my head
A flower blooms that was already dead
December's long gone
But these fields are forever frozen

And everything she said
Burns in the back of my head
Quicksands of silver
Under dreams, now glittering golden

All along, I sing this song
It runs wild, like a river inside
Voice cries out words of doubt
Take them to heart, they make me bleed

Every day my attention strays
Light like life, it fades away
The clock, it ticks, I turn my back
I feel the surface bulge and crack

Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tock
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tock, tick
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tock, tick
Tick, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick
Tick, tick, tock, tick, tock, tick

Slam, I want the change
I feel the change

Then post-metamorphosis
Where do the answers lie?
One above and one below
With lions locked inside
Then in silence, they turn the key
Setting all those lions free

Then I hold my head up higher and higher
Reach out tentacles to every desire
I faced the sea and it's time for a change
I am an octopus in flames

Sinking underwater
Sweating boiling getting hotter
Bubbles burst between my fingers
My breath is cracked and drawn

Sinking like an anvil
Facing several tentacles
My eyes go black and pop red cherries
The surface, gone

Gone, I'm gone, gone, I'm gone
Gone, I'm gone, gone, I'm gone

I'm mesmerized
A servant to the light, I can't deny it
With everyone standing here
I'm a million miles away

A change, a change
A change, a change
