Into the Shadowlands, something compelling me
How can I understand what it is telling me?
Here in the waiting room,
Spinning my black cocoon
Silken and seamless, dormant and dreamless
Where do you go now that nothing can grow?
What will you do
When no one can break through?
How do you play when the sky becomes gray?
What do you say when reason slips away?
Into the Shadowlands, shrouded in ebony
Holding out both my hands, I am Persephone
Tasting the ruby seeds, question my sanity
What is the penalty for my humanity?
Where do you go now that nothing can grow?
What will you do when no one can break through?
How do you play when the sky becomes gray?
What do you say when reason slips away?
Sun is a red balloon,
Fractures this frozen tomb
Out of captivity flows creativity
Where did you go when nothing would grow
What did you do
When no one could break through
Now we will sing and welcome back the spring
Come out and play it’s beautiful today
