Once Upon A Time

from The Birth Of Tragedy by What Lies Ahead

/

about

"Tell me a story."

lyrics

Weigh the worth of ancient deeds
To rise alone
To speak
So slow (So slow)
Underwhelming

Dethrone the myth that keeps us down
Spare the rod, declare my foe (My foe)
No distractions

Waking, breathing
Walking, Sleeping

Don’t look at me like
I’m the one who sold your soul
Bear the pain you’ve wrought
Til reach betrays control

Tradition beckons us to search
These tales
Outside of what
We know (we know)
Of sacred endings

Should we doubt, hate, or believe?
Is it virtuous to go (to go)
Without understanding?

Fable, legend
What’s the moral?
Tell me a story

Don’t look at me like
I’m the one who sold your soul
Bear the pain you’ve wrought
Til reach betrays control

Speak the name that sets us free,
Once upon a time indeed
Speak the name that sets us free,
Once upon a time indeed

Don’t look at me like
I’m the one who sold your soul
Bear the pain you’ve wrought
Til reach betrays control
