Ecdysis!

The rules of the game have changed

Green is colorless and blue

Has taken its place

And where that light was before

Now there seems to be none (Now there seems to be none)

The ground used to be made of gravel (Now there seems to be none)

And now it's made of a liquid I can't see

Things have been turned around

Voices telling me that which I shouldn't be

And the leaves fly into the air instеad of to the ground

And the sun shines at night, thе moon in the day

For you're not there when you used to be

For you're not there when you used to be

On the ground, I see a serpent (Ecdysis)

She asks me to help her up and take the skin she's shed

Things have been turned around (Ecdysis)

Things have been turned around (Ecdysis)

Keep me far from you so you may grow (Ecdysis)

Keep me far from you so you may grow (Ecdysis)

Ecdysis, ecdysis

Ecdysis, ecdysis

On the ground I see a beetle (Ecdysis)

His wings have been chopped by the wind (Ecdysis)

He tells me, "Please don't look at them

For I'm embarrassed that I cannot fly"

I picked him up and threw him from the thousand-mile cliff

So he could fly for the rest of his days

For they don't live long

Is it better to fly or to fall?

Is it better to run or come home?

Is it better to shed your skin

Or to continue treading among those of you own kin?

[Instrumental Break]

Now there seems to be none (Now there seems to be none)

Now there seems to be none (Now there seems to be none)

Now there seems to be none (Now there seems to be none)

Now there seems to be none (Now there seems to be none)

He tells me, "Please don't look at them" (Now there seems to be, now there seems to be)

"For I'm embarrassed that I cannot fly" (Now there seems to be, now there seems to be)

I picked him up and threw him from the thousand-mile cliff

So he could fly for the rest of his days

For they don't live long
