10 days have passed over my window
10 nights away over the sea
And when I ask you to believe me
You deny to believe
10 flowers dancing on a rainbow
10 clouds raining over me
I would ask you to believe me
But you, would deny to believe
10 days, 10 flowers
10 nights, 10 clouds
Over the sea, over the rainbow
And you, you deny to believe...

-"Hello.. Welcome.. I am here to help you..
So… what could I do for you today?
...I just want you to know that the time is tickin' away.."
-"Doctor.. I don't know, I just don't know, it's so hard to explain..
it's this empty feeling, it somehow feels like I m constantly
Lost and found.."

Ray was born on a rainy day
A little small, a bit afraid
Hadn't really much to say
As a kid he learnt a trade
Building boats by the bay
His plan was to escape
So Ray, sail away
I know you cannot take much more pain
And if you feel you had enough
Won't you please, please come back
And stay...
And then he left on a hazy day
Packed his stuff in disarray
Won't come back, there's no fuckin way
Goodbye Mom, please don't pray
And he was gone, gone away
Don't you cry, it's OK
So Ray, sail away
I know you cannot take much more pain
But if you feel you had enough
Won't you please, please come back
And stay...
Days passed, years went away
On a foreign shore, dipped in gray
Letters written, halfway
Being alone, the price to pay
Sadness, tears and disarray
And I swear, I heard you say..
So Ray, don't sail away
Tomorrow's coming, a brand new day
And if you feel you had enough
Won't you please, please lay back
And stay...

5 o‘clock and i m feeling down
And I m strolling the streets
Cause you re not around
And I feel
I ‘ll fade away
It's nearly Monday morning
But the sun is down
I ve been here before
But where's the ground?
I m falling...
Without a sound...
And I m begging on my knees
Please let go
Got this nauseous feeling
This buzzing in my head
Please make it stop
Please make it end
I m drowning
All alone...
Got my little candy
And I ll be alright
And my friend who says
"you should sleep at night"
I tell you
He s got no clue...
Cause when She hooks you
She won't let you go…
Every time...
Every time you come around
You bring me down..
You push me in the corner
You demand a frown
You make me weak
I wear the crown of Yours..
Your Majesty..
I know you have control
And your name is pain
Let's talk it over
Please show some grace
I swear...
I ll fade away
And before this morning comes
I ll be dead...
[...]
I ve been waiting
I ve dreaming
For some relief..

[Just a Word of Caution]
~* ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ *~
"..Don't take it personally, but just to let you know..
..nobody really cares.. You' re all alone.. on this..
..Ironic as it might sound, the only choice you actually ever had
was to pick you fears. And then you grew up with them, in this little dark box, and you had to feed them to keep them happy,but they asked for more and more, until they really drove you insane..
And now.. you can scream if you want, but it's all in vain, nobody can really hear you.. So instead you're just lying on the floor while they're staring at you, cause there's nowhere to hide and nothing more to seek..
The funny thing is that you've got to trust that they're not gonna kill you until the very end; your nightmares keep them alive.
But just a word of caution; keep in mind that if you bite their bullet and give in, this Phantom Circus will soon get crowded and far too noisy And I'm afraid that, eventually, it's gonna be too late to scream.. too late to breath.. and too late to live.."
[Inside the Box]
~* ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ *~
Inside this Box i'm locked in
my heartbeat vibrates its walls
I 've been trying to escape from it for years
got to find a way out of here
and once i'm free i'll find you
i'll describe you all my thoughts
hoping that you will understand
Just a couple of words...
Please stay with me
Please walk with me
Please live with me
I don't know, it's life down the drain..
Inside this Box i'm locked in
my heartbeat vibrates its walls
trying to escape from it for years
but I'm stuck on the floors..
My life is spinning round in circles
My life is going down the drain
Inside this box I 've lived forever
Please let me introduce my fears...
["Pleasure!"]
~* ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ *~
They're Shadows on the ceiling
They're staring down at me
They're dancing wildly and in circles
And then they laugh at me
They point their fingers towards me
And then they speak..
["Looks like we've got a little clown over here!
Come on, be our guest !"]
..In Fear..
[..you can shuffle the cards, and..]
..You'll trust..
[..you'll find only one king, cause..]
..In time..
[..it 's gonna be more than our shadows that..]
..You'll see..

it's time to take a look inside the Box.."]

["I mean, if you've been a good boy today,
you might not get that many nightmares..."]
["..Anytime.."]

Welcome to the Phantom Circus
Please pick your Elephant
Here you'll find all sorts of Fears
Cozy and Elegant
Midnight Whispers and Little Secrets
Echo inside the Box
Screams that keep you awake
Fears that won't let go...

A rhyme finds a reason
A flower smells the sky
A bee withdraws its needle
And a clock forgets about time
Rain falls in summer
In a desert full of smiles
A movie plays backwards
And your memories are also mine
A square is a perfect circle
And blue is fainted red
A cloud holds my pillow
And the rain is not that wet
From honey they made the wine
In the field across the tree
Remember when I told you?
That to live means to be free
And if you care to find me
I ll tell you were I ll be
I will be singing lullabies
At the end of Nowhere Street.
“...A rhyme finds a reason, a flower smells the sky
A cloud holds your pillow, and i sleep by your side..
and when you grow up and become a man
make sure you dare, make sure you care
and if you get lonely every now and then
and need a friend, just wave your hand...”
