♫Can You See it♫

This is a grim specter of a vision of apocalypse pending. I'm doing inquire too closely into the source of each song. I figure they are reflections of the moment that has already gone past.

Lyrics=

Close the doors and windows

before the rain of poison falls

Never mind the humming cellphones

no one’s answering the calls

Don’t believe a thing you hear,

when they say the coast is clear

They want you to step outside,

and death can take you for a ride

The prophecies are crystal clear

The biggest danger is the fear

It happens when you lose your faith

and activate the wraith

Can you see it?

Can you see the dancing wraith

dancing on the windowsill

It’s trying to get close enough,

cause even shadows kill

They’ll take the power that you give

and take away your will to live

Can you see it? Can you see it dancing?

You need to close your eyes

so that what is truly real

can connect to what you feel

There’s a reservoir of sunlight

hidden in the atmosphere

You will find it lives on prayer,

and that is what keeps it there

You will find The World’s a rumor

for the purpose of control

It’s how they keep the numbers down

and feed upon your soul

Words are eaten by the ears

and digested by the mind,

then your broken heart is sick

and every blow is timed

Can you see it?

Can you see the dancing wraith

dancing on the windowsill

It’s trying to get close enough,

cause even shadows kill

They’ll take the power that you give

and take away your will to live

Can you see it? Can you see it dancing?

You need to close your eyes

so that what is truly real

can connect to what you feel

It takes the reach of childhood

before you notice you’ve been had

by faceless creatures in the dark,

so what’s the point of getting mad?

It’s far too late to change the course

They burned the cart and killed the horse

The barn door also will not close,

you get the lotion or the hose

Somewhere, a better world awaits

for those who managed to escape

The state will call it romance,

and the victims call it rape

the only thing that matters

is if you break the tape

The winners get remembered

The losers can’t remember

and the people will forget

everything they ever saw,

or what they came here for

Can you see it?

Can you see the dancing wraith

dancing on the windowsill.

It’s trying to get close enough,

cause even shadows kill.

They’ll take the power that you give

and take away your will to live

Can you see it? Can you see it dancing?

You need to close your eyes

so that what is truly real

can connect to what you feel

The moral of the story is

there are no morals here

Everything’s permitted

Including what you fear;

the loss of everything you love

and all that you hold dear

and...

all that you hold dear.
