What kind of song do you compose when you're stuck in a wine cellar with nothing to play but a lot of bottles and glasses?

lyrics

What It Seems
(Suncat, Orville, Korynn)

Sometimes it's not so bad

Sometimes you can get through a day without

Remembering all you had

And how it all slipped from view and all about the

Time when you thought you knew

Time and a word that made you feel so agile

What was a girl to do?

When all of the games you played just left me fragile


I see you standing there amid your displays

Clinging to fragments of your past future days

No-one can save you now, you're lost in the haze

Of dreams....

When everything is what it seems.

Now it's a different age
Now we all see the sails upon the ocean
Black as a father's rage
A fury that keens and wails her dark devotion
Even the blackness pales
Even the score with magic as a player
Time to rewrite the tales
Time to reclaim the badge of the relayer

I see you falling, going down on your knees,
Ravaged and broken by your own foul disease,
Choking and striving as you fight to release
Your screams....
When everything is what it seems.

Ah...
Never coming home never coming home never coming never never never
Ah...
Thought you were so smart thought you had it made thought you had it did you did you did you
Ah...
Should have seen it coming shoulda seen it coming shoulda seen it shoulda shoulda shoulda
Ah...
Would have put it right woulda put it right you woulda done it woulda woulda woulda

Time to rewind the thread
Time to return in triumph as a hero
Man with the horns is dead
Theseus won, the Minotaur a zero
Now when your heart is high
Now is the time you need to be much calmer
Drama is drawing nigh
One more demise to feed the die-o-rama

I see you lying there with pain in your eyes
Helpless and fearful as a part of you dies
You beat the monster but you can't analyse
The themes....
When everything is what it seems.

Zanda Myrande is still recovering from the trauma of being Zander Nyrond for several decades. She has only come out online at this point, for reasons which may be apparent from the picture above, but she proudly embraces her trans identity while still giving house room to Zander and the rest of the deadbeats who populate her head.

Lives in Wiltshire and has better friends than she deserves. ... more
