The Sandman’s Orchestra - Russian Doll lyrics

Caught in the trap of your own making With a painted smile that shines bright And I wish to vanish Your beauty’s there for the world to see But no one is watching with wind Raffled your hair and you’re cursing my wings The lonelier the news Keep leading you astray It’s so easy to lose your way I spy on you day after day I’m a shadow in your traps Left with a glimpse of heaven And a thousand question marks I crouch in the corner and wait As you sing yourself to sleep And the colors fade sponsored links I wipe your tears away but the bleeding won’t go No more words to say No light to follow (Chorus) A second shine looking at the girl who sang to wonder And the motion of the light cuts like a blade through The day I thought of you The winter in the shade I want to disappear forever I watch you from a distance and I know your heart to be the beat Small world, you’re with me One day you’ll settle for a consolation prize A ring around your finger reflecting sparkle in your eyes In this wilderness of bloom will never leave a soul You were made at your feet A long time ago And we were made out to foot a long time ago (Chorus) A second shine looking at the girl who sang to wonder And the motion of the light cuts like a blade through The day I thought of you The winter in the shade I want to disappear forever I watch you from a distance and I know your heart to be the beat Small world, you’re with me
