Lyrics
Words and music: amy ray
Laughing in a crowd of jewels Numbness from a sceptors wound Toss and turn, I spin and learn "Catch yourself before you burn" A joker's dance before the king Jangling beads, a silver ring Close your eyes and bare the sound Jumping up--falling down
Falling, falling, falling, falling down Look yourself in the eye before you drown
Royal rebels discover you Trust? you turn there is no truth And circle, circle, why are you scared? Why a smile instead of tears? I'm gulping smoke to fade away Figures floating down to lay Meet the joker and the thief King and queen--but no relief
Amy: Falling, falling, falling, falling down Look yourself in the eye before you drown Falling, falling, falling, falling down Look yourself in the eye before you drown Emily: "The king is in his counting house, counting all his money The queen is in her parlor, eating bread and honey The king is in his counting house, counting all his money The queen is in the parlor, eating bread and honey."
--Mary had a little lamb--
I cross myself before I die The leaping man he asks me "why?" "Well your rhythm is off" I reply "Now you must dance the dance that you imply" "Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round Your actions will follow you full circle round The higher the leap," I said
