Sleeping Beauty

There's a rose sealed away in the winter
Fast asleep through the wind and rain and cold
Ever waiting for someone to wake her
One who'll see that she's no one's to hold
Maybe she is a spell never broken
Little girl from a world in-between
Each tomorrow a promise unspoken
And every today like a dream in a dream
She's still sleeping
She's still dreaming
She's still dreaming
She is Love - oh but never a Lover
Shrinks away from the touch of his hand
From kisses and candles that stain her affection
Her Love is a place he will not understand
There's a child inside made of flowers and stars
Lost in whispers and wings and the beauty of
Innocence cradled in moments eternal
Snow undisturbed in the glow of the morning light
And she's still sleeping
She's still dreaming
Sleeping beauty
And she's still flying
She's still singing
Can you hear her?
There is grace in the red of her twilight
There is truth in her darkness ahead
Treasure held in her eyes never open
Melody in her words never said
And she's still sleeping
She's still dreaming
She's still dreaming

Up in your tower, away from the world
Foundationed by fears of being on your own
Cemented by trenches between 'you' and 'they' -
Your sanctuary - or so you say…
'Cause you put the bars against your window view
And you built the walls that isolate you
A foolish Rapunzel - afraid of yourself -
A stranger, a prisoner inside your head
'Cause outside
Life seems so busy
And your mind
Makes you so dizzy
Oh what can you do
But embrace this confusion
And love this madness?
Life: A story you tell yourself in the night
A lullaby fiction, a bitter delight
Where voices, distant and muffled, collide
In a chaos beyond your control
It all depends on your perspective
You're only alone if you see it that way
Oh come now Rapunzel, so hard on yourself
You're just as deserving as anyone else
Outside
Life seems so busy
And your mind
Makes you so dizzy
Oh what can you do
But embrace this confusion
And love this madness?
Time doesn't wait
You've got to reach out
And make your mistakes
Let down your hair
Rapunzel, Rapunzel
There's a world out there
There's a world out there!
Outside
Life seems so busy
And your mind
Makes you so dizzy -
Oh what can you do
But embrace this confusion
And love this madness?
Love this madness

Drifting through this
Wild and weathered dreamscape
Somewhere lost in the storm
Pieces of my heartache
Whispers reach through the night
Pull me from my darkness
Cast all pity aside -
Sleep is not so heartless
Starlight, starlight
Take me to your refuge
Lull me, lull me
Save me from this deluge!
Chained by questions
Reaching for the answers
In sweet, sweet dreamings
Stained with hollow nightmares
If my heart breaks
Will no one hear it?
If my world aches
Will no one feel it?
Honesty is
Stronger than your violence
Truth is braver
Even in my silence
Secrets swallowed -
And I will never ever tell them
Those words that sting like a
Thousand poison daggers in my bosom
If my heart breaks
Will no one hear it?
If my world aches
Will no one feel it?
If my heart breaks
If my world aches
If my heart breaks
If my world aches
Who will hear it…?
Who will feel it…?
Who will

Another day to paint in
Monochrome and aching
Another battle raging
Between realities and dreams
Another mountain to climb
Another shackle to unwind
Another scar beneath the skin
Another hole to fill in
And her imagination
She swallowed deep inside her
Because they told her it was dangerous to dream
And now she cuts it open
Peers inside to breathe it in
She finds herself surrounded
By all the ghosts she’s been
This is not my story
This is not the end
'cause everyone is always happy in the end
Aren't they?
This is not my story
This is not the end
'cause everyone is always happy in the end
Aren't they?
As her defenses fall down
Around her fractured portaits
Her shadowed thoughts become her
Hated demons taunting
Whispering on street corners
"Don’t stop now, keep running"
Blood keeps pounding in her ears
A city blurring in her tears
Her defiance tells her
The biggest lie it ever told her
"I am not afraid
No, I am not afraid"
She's afraid of every
Second she must face alone
Her severed self pleading
From a thousand stars she wished upon
This is not my story
This is not the end
'cause everyone is always happy in the end
Aren't they?
This is not my story
This is not the end
'cause everyone is always happy in the end
I know I meant to be loved...
And this is not my story
This is not my story...
And I don't wanna be alone
This is not my story
This is not my story
Everyone is always happy in the end
Aren't they...?
