window of the waking mind (demo) - coheed and cambria lyrics

i: time

time

time has a funny way of playing jokes on you
while you’re waiting for what you think you know
will happen next is never what you could have come to expect
and so it goes, oh, and so it goes

deep inside his eyes, i see myself
as i wonder who he’ll turn out to be
is that a question that needs answering right now?
ii: the awakening

“and so our tale continues
as my parents ascend the dark sentencer
and hightail it for the outer reaches of sp*ce
my conception their futurе, and their fate imminent
as thеir past draws me into the world”

iii: birth

here’s a simple story and i hope i tell it well
of a boy locked in a place, his mind the very cell
imprisoned with his wild visions of every time in sp*ce
there’s no one in this world quite like him

the thing that complicates it is his parents and who they are
the law they’re made to run from beyond the house of the stars
the birth must be in secret so no prying eyes can see
there’s no one of this world quite like him

our pride and joy, are you there?
are you in there safe and sound?
tell us what you need so we can help you
we don’t know what to do, we don’t know what to do

patronizing doctors with their diagnostic leads
carry on your query, it’s blood, the boy, he bleeds
but you can’t see him like you, so a monster he must be
there’s no one in this world quite like him
vaxis?
son?
do you hear us?
do you feel us?
i…
i…

iv: the mirroring eyes

“vaxis?”
“vaxis?”
“vaxis?”

vaxis, can you see us with your eyes?
vaxis, can you hear us with your ears?
is this right to calculate his moments?
to find what’s normal is being normal

what’s right?
what’s right?
can you feel it? (no)
can you hear it? (no)

v: the mother

time
i’ll take you home, this child of ours
i’ll take you home
with all my love, i’ll give you the world
and keep no secrets from you
so life gets tough, but it’s no excuse or your fault
my brightest star, shine your light on us all
am i wrong or did he save me?
shine your love on all this crazy
oh!

vi: the father

who says you gotta rush to get old?
figure it all out or you’ll be left in the cold
(who says you gotta rush?)
little one, let them
don’t follow, just set them free
you can do it on your time, so you know
(oh, my boy)
i’ll be watching you, armed to the t**th
don’t you go poking while the lion, he sleeps
(the lion, he sleeps, my boy)
my boy, it’s okay to cry

i’m telling you
time!

who says you gotta rush to get old?
figure it all out or you’ll be left in the cold
(i’m telling you, time)
little one, let them
don’t follow, just set them free
you can do it on your time, so you know
(i’m telling you, time)
i’ll be watching you, armed to the t**th
don’t you go poking while the lion, he sleeps
(i’m telling you, boy)
my boy, it’s okay to cry

time!
