Reality is Afraid Lyrics by Seeming

The Birdwatcher’s Guide to Atrocity

2020

I'll pay no mind to the scorpion
Perched and poised on my shoulder
I'm not the kind to heed a warning
And as I'm gazing into you
I think you're fearless too

The door is wide to let the storm in
But you don't flinch when it gets colder
And in this chill something is forming
We feel the shiver of the wind
And when we hear the rain begin

Reality is shaking
Reality is wringing its hands
Cause we've run beyond its radius
Reality's afraid of us
Watch 'em now
Reality will cave to demands
Darling, we are dangerous
Reality's afraid of us

And you shall have all that you need
A cave with every sort of seed

We lost track of all our damage
So what's another sting or body frozen
When every scar is our advantage?
And if we've already died
What's the turning of a tide? Nothing

I'll say it plain as I can manage
Nothing's planned; nothing's chosen
We simply took our names and vanished
Now we happen through our eye
Count to one and say goodbye

Reality is shaking
Reality is wringing its hands
Cause we've run beyond its radius
Reality's afraid of us
Watch 'em now
Reality will cave to demands
Darling, we are dangerous
Reality's afraid of us
And it's breaking
Retreats and disbands
Nothing more than clay to us
Reality's afraid of us
Watch it go
Giving up the ghost of a chance
Darling, we are dangerous
Reality's afraid of us
