Headed for the end, not looking back.
It’s coming for me.
Colours are all gone, everything’s black,
All my gold turns into stone.
What will I be thinking as I die?
Have I wasted my time? Tell me my future.
What will transpire? I need to know.
When my days are nearly done,
Who will remain around?
Is anyone genuine,
Or have I been surrounded by frauds?
Perpetually marching without a set course.
I want to see timelines exude from my chest.
I wanna look inside ‘em,
I wanna choose what’s next.
A glimpse into a crystal ball.
(Turn it up. Turn it up.)
Show me now. I need to know.
“Look into my eyes,
& Place your sacrifice,
It should come as no surprise,
The future never lies.”
(A word to the wise.)
Tell me what I want to know,
Is it set? Can I decide?
Will I reach the other side?
Oh, please give me a sign.
This is my time.
Take my offerings, my sacrifice
(Pythia)
Open eyed,
What will I be thinking as I die?
Irrational fear of becoming obsolete, outdated, done.
Show me what I’m made of,
Show me how it ends.
Do I decide the outcome?
Can I change what I become? “
Look into my eyes,
& Place your sacrifice,
It should come as no surprise
, The future never lies.”
(A word to the wise.)
Tell me what I want to know,
Is it set? Can I decide?
Will I reach the other side?
Oh, please give me a sign.
This is my time. This is my time.
Eyes rolling backwards, I’m lost to her trance.
Show me what you see in the shifting sands.
Burning laurel leaves, Volcanic fume hallucination.
I’ll pay with blood, I’ve got enough…
When I reach the end, looking back,
(Pythia)
Will I be stuck holding onto the past?
(I need to know.)
Will I ever let go? Will I die all alone?
(Pythia)
Tell me my future, I need to know.
(Pythia)
