Scary Mary
I pass many creatures
With different sorts of masks
And I closely watch their features
Like it is one of my tasks
When I came here hours ago
I thought it would be fine
That all would normally flow
Like two distant vines
But after walking in
This little circus town
I realize my imagination will win
Because I see all but a clown
I don't remember why I came
I don't even remember how
I just heard the sound of my name
But all is too silent now...
I try to find someone decent
So I can ask them where it is I've stumbled
But it seems that something recent
Has made everyone normal become crumbled
Because everyone here
Is nowhere ordinary
And it seems I will also disappear
Along with Scary Mary
I remember now
She was who brought me here
I was walking as fast as my feet would allow
Hoping her voice would become more near
But the faster I ran to her
She became more distant
And now I'm stuck in this blur
Wanting this to be nonexistent
Now I guess all I have to say
To anyone who knows Scary Mary
Don't follow her voices play
Because your mind she will carry
With different sorts of masks
And I closely watch their features
Like it is one of my tasks
When I came here hours ago
I thought it would be fine
That all would normally flow
Like two distant vines
But after walking in
This little circus town
I realize my imagination will win
Because I see all but a clown
I don't remember why I came
I don't even remember how
I just heard the sound of my name
But all is too silent now...
I try to find someone decent
So I can ask them where it is I've stumbled
But it seems that something recent
Has made everyone normal become crumbled
Because everyone here
Is nowhere ordinary
And it seems I will also disappear
Along with Scary Mary
I remember now
She was who brought me here
I was walking as fast as my feet would allow
Hoping her voice would become more near
But the faster I ran to her
She became more distant
And now I'm stuck in this blur
Wanting this to be nonexistent
Now I guess all I have to say
To anyone who knows Scary Mary
Don't follow her voices play
Because your mind she will carry
