Reality is Afraid - Seeming

I’ll pay no mind to the scorpion

Perched and poised on my shoulder

I’m not the kind to heed a warning

And as I’m gazing into you

I think you’re fearless too

The door is wide to let the storm in

But you don’t flinch when it gets colder

And in this chill something is forming

We feel the shiver of the wind

And when we hear the rain begin

Reality is shaking

Reality is wringing its hands

Cause we’ve run beyond its radius

Reality’s afraid of us

Watch 'em now

Reality will cave to demands

Darling, we are dangerous

Reality’s afraid of us

And you shall have all that you need

A cave with every sort of seed

We lost track of all our damage

So what’s another sting or body frozen

When every scar is our advantage?

And if we’ve already died

What’s the turning of a tide?

Nothing

I’ll say it plain as I can manage

Nothing’s planned;

nothing’s chosen

We simply took our names and vanished

Now we happen through our eye

Count to one and say goodbye

Reality is shaking

Reality is wringing its hands

Cause we’ve run beyond its radius

Reality’s afraid of us

Watch 'em now

Reality will cave to demands

Darling, we are dangerous

Reality’s afraid of us

And it’s breaking

Retreats and disbands

Nothing more than clay to us

Reality’s afraid of us

Watch it go

Giving up the ghost of a chance

Darling, we are dangerous

Reality’s afraid of us
