lyrics

Those weren’t love songs
Those were eulogies
For lost realities
But this will never be
There’s no ruby slippers
In a bodice ripper
And that’s the love we need:
Glitter at our feet

Wishes come true. You’ll fly away
You’re inches from that far-off place
I’ll pick my skirts up off the stairs
Let the wind whip my hair
I got a kingdom at my command
And tomorrow, tomorrowland

Here comes the cyclone
Here comes the cyclone
Let’s let the cyclone take us home

Have I learned the lesson?
Satisfied my mission?
I know there’s no perfect endings
Only edges, landings
But I’m getting restless
Will it be as I left it?
There’s the doorway and
I’ve grown to large to exit

Here comes the cyclone
Here comes the cyclone
Let’s let the cyclone take us home

Is it that kind of story
Or is that too boring
Girl finds out that she’s strong
It was inside her all along
No it’s the kind of story
A bitter allegory
With human sacrifice
Our hero pays the price

Each time you go, you’ll come back changed
Until one day you’ll just stay
Did I abandon my entire life
To try and fail to find some Truer Sight?
A journey where I end up alone
And I’ll never get back home

Here comes the cyclone
Here comes the cyclone

You have reached the end of Cycle One.
