The Paper Melody The Nightmare Academy (EP) Lyrics
1.Adam And Eve

Gather around.
Let me tell you about a place where you can dream.
A city built to save you from their altruistic ways.
Colors oh, so bright.
Tell me, tell me, could you ever leave this place?
I built this world to satisfy the desires of the people seeking
change,
Yeah, the people seeking change.

You built this city in the depths to shield it from the other
men
With intent to steal the dream that I have worked for.
And I won't let them in.
I've had a taste of everything,
And I brought the world down to its knees.
Now all I've worked for is mine.

It's been such a long time since I've brought this world to me.
Have I made a wrong turn, trapped inside this city in the sea?
Yeah, the city in the sea.

You built this city in the depths to shield it from the other
men
With intent to steal the dream that I have worked for,
And I won't let them in.
I've had a taste of everything,
And I brought the world down to its knees.
Now all I've worked for is mine.

With one breath of air, taste will linger on your tongue, so
breathe deeply.

And I won't let them in.

You built this city in the depths to shield it from the other
men
With intent to steal the dream that I have worked for,
And I won't let them in.
I've had a taste of everything,
And I brought the world down to its knees.
Now all I've worked for is mine.


2.Pirouette Prisoner

All alone,
I know, I know I should let go.
I know I should.
Oh, I tried so hard to shake this reflection.
It's haunting me.

Swear that you'll never lock me inside.
With no light, it's hard to see right through you.
These words have left me broken.
All the pieces spinning circles, circles around me,
And you leave me, leave me with nothing at all.

Left in darkness you, you leave me to decay.
Don't hide my grace away.
Just spare me a moment.
Despair is my home,
It's a tomb filled with treasures and terrors of love.
Oh, you can bury me, just bury me.

Swear that you'll never lock me inside.
With no light, it's hard to see right through you.
These words have left me broken.
All the pieces spinning circles, circles around me,
And you leave me, leave me with nothing at all.

Dead, not alive, but human inside.
The burden is mine.
Open me up, there's more inside of me.
Now turn the key.
Dead, not alive, but human inside.
The burden is mine.

Dancing to her song.

Swear that you'll never lock me inside.
With no light, it's hard to see right through you.
These words have left me broken.
All the pieces spinning circles, circles around me,
And you leave me, leave me with nothing at all.


3.The Nightmare Academy

You can't see everything.

I carelessly misplaced my soul.
The emptiness, it crushes my bones.
In my weakness I, I crumble.
I've fallen victim to my real world!

You can't see everything.

Where's my body?
I think I sank beneath it.
Dark and empty under the waves of blankets.
Every corner, bedsheets bear the edge of the earth.
To emptiness I feel somebody pulling me.
So swim before the current pulls you in.
Awaken my body.

It took my very last breath to run away from what's left.
I know it's a dream that we share.
At the end of the light I know there's safety.
There's safety in waking!

You can't see everything.

Where's my body?
I think I sank beneath it.
Dark and empty under the waves of blankets.
Every corner, bedsheets bear the edge of the earth.
To emptiness I feel somebody pulling me.
So swim before the current pulls you in.

Hang onto life on the other side to put your mind to rest.

When all the bodies collide in search of my own
This can't be how it will end
End all alone.

Where's my body?
I think I sank beneath it.
Dark and empty under the waves of blankets.
Every corner, bedsheets bear the edge of the earth.
To emptiness I feel somebody pulling me.
So swim before the current pulls you in.
