chasing myths
A man walking on a tightrope
Between the towers of Notre-Dame
It's him I imagine to be
As I tiptoe on the lines of the path at the park
And I notice how my shoes are the perfect shade of grey
To match the concrete ground
And my hands hidden in my pockets
Cannot ruin with goofy movements the shot
And I
Keep walking and I keep chasing myths
Hiding from ghosts into fancy bars
But then I can't remember what's home
I've always walked the world with blurry eyes
I wander labyrinths without a red thread
All the veins show on the back of my hand
To remind me that I'm flesh
I spend the evening looking
At my fingers wishing them more elegant
And it's revolting to think
This sight is what my friends all have to bear
I dance in front of the mirror till I drop to the ground
Even as a corpse I'll be mad if my body won't fit the gown
And I
Keep walking and I keep chasing myths
Hiding from ghosts into fancy bars
But then I can't remember what's home
I've always walked the world with blurry eyes
I wander labyrinths without a red thread
All the veins show on the back of my hand
To remind me that I'm flesh
I dim the lights and the room turns into
An abandoned castle
I dance barefoot on the floor
Stained glass windows and wooden doors
Till the glass shatters and the wood burns
And there's a mirror amongst the smoke
And my dismantled face on splinters dropped
And I know nothing and my eyes uncontrollably
Turn on their waterworks
I do nothing but rambling
Chasing myths
Hiding from ghosts in enchanted lands
But then I can't remember what's true
And the outside world feels like a hostile place
I wander labyrinths after the ball ends
I think I'd like to be forgotten in there
Until the world ends
Between the towers of Notre-Dame
It's him I imagine to be
As I tiptoe on the lines of the path at the park
And I notice how my shoes are the perfect shade of grey
To match the concrete ground
And my hands hidden in my pockets
Cannot ruin with goofy movements the shot
And I
Keep walking and I keep chasing myths
Hiding from ghosts into fancy bars
But then I can't remember what's home
I've always walked the world with blurry eyes
I wander labyrinths without a red thread
All the veins show on the back of my hand
To remind me that I'm flesh
I spend the evening looking
At my fingers wishing them more elegant
And it's revolting to think
This sight is what my friends all have to bear
I dance in front of the mirror till I drop to the ground
Even as a corpse I'll be mad if my body won't fit the gown
And I
Keep walking and I keep chasing myths
Hiding from ghosts into fancy bars
But then I can't remember what's home
I've always walked the world with blurry eyes
I wander labyrinths without a red thread
All the veins show on the back of my hand
To remind me that I'm flesh
I dim the lights and the room turns into
An abandoned castle
I dance barefoot on the floor
Stained glass windows and wooden doors
Till the glass shatters and the wood burns
And there's a mirror amongst the smoke
And my dismantled face on splinters dropped
And I know nothing and my eyes uncontrollably
Turn on their waterworks
I do nothing but rambling
Chasing myths
Hiding from ghosts in enchanted lands
But then I can't remember what's true
And the outside world feels like a hostile place
I wander labyrinths after the ball ends
I think I'd like to be forgotten in there
Until the world ends
