dave ellwood - dancing with belladonna | again lyrics

[part one — “dancing with belladonna”]

[intro]
it appears we’ve come to the elephant in the room
something is bothering you, are you stressed?
(are you stressed?)
(are you stressed?)
(and we have lift off!)

[refrain]
scoreboard, scoreboard!
scoreboard, scoreboard!
scoreboard, scoreboard!
scoreboard, scoreboard!

[verse one]
true, but i’m just a shell of a man though
no ones at home; you can call me a bando
lack of stimulation has me jaded
i’m hallucinating off the edge, the walls are looking shaded
as i’m trapped between the cover of the folds
creating a new future, i ain’t never letting go
i’m doing nothing but pissing off in my room
contemplating huffing laugh or sipping doom
i’ll admit overall, it’s quite pathetic
the rhetoric, that i was advancing my own aesthetic

[chorus one]
are you ready?
are you ready?
are you ready?
dancing with belladonna

[verse two]
as i walk through the valley of death, i see my reflection
as i walk through the valley of regret, i see my precession
i’m still talking to the mirrors
and they don’t even even know my name
but who’s to blame, yeah
sponsored by monster
the irresponsible villain, just chilling
and k!lling the essence of every motherf-cking vibe
against the wire like suicide
morphing blurry lines between do or die
as you wait for my arrival
by the torches light, under the stars tonight
we light up for revival

[chorus two]
i’m ready, are you ready?
dancing with belladonna
are you ready? i’m ready
dancing with belladonna
i’m dancing with belladonna

[break one]
anger boiling, ready to scream
i punch that mirror and that mirror is me
gl-ss shards on the ground, i think i’ll probably need three
i take a look in the mirror and there’s nothing to see
and i’m gone, and i’m gone
gl-ss shards on the ground, i think i’ll probably need three
i take a look at the mirror and there’s nothing to see
and i’m gone

[verse three]
lucidity slipping, i’m tripping, i’m torn and i’m out of control
shots fired, i’m tired of living a poor lonely life on the road
who do i align with? who do i ride with?
who do i side with? where do i go?
who do i fly with? who will i die with?
will i fall down like whoa?
eyes on the prize, sigh as i realize
that my lies idolized a future outside
of the life i was living, imprisoned, by sutures
of spiteful decisions from younger positions
i glare at my crystal ball
smash every stair to my past
appalled by the failures and falls i’d am-ssed
the hunger of nights sailed alone on my craft
carry the cross on my back
i try to see clear but i cannot react
i said i won’t crack
i said i won’t crack up my chance to stand up on the hill top
but how am i supposed to know?
whether i’m climbing up or p-ssing on?

[break two]
here am i hopeless
but my god, yes, he knows this
i am at peace
in due time, i will return at least

[chorus three]
float away, no problems, no pain
who cares about the gain
tears mix amongst the rain
we’re all on the same path
but is this the time for you
we’re all on the same path
but who will follow who?
we’re all on the same path
but who will fall ‘fore you?
i’m ready, dancing with belladonna
i’m dancing with belladonna

[shift]
something’s happening, what’s happening
what’s happening, something’s happening
something’s happening, what’s happening
what’s happening, something’s happening
something’s happening, what’s happening
what’s happening, something’s happening
something’s happening, what’s happening
what’s happening, something’s happening
something’s happening, what’s happening
what’s happening, something’s happening

[part two — “again”]

[intro]
past blood of djinn washes over my skin
fractured integrity leaves on a whim
an inner voice, once consumed by the thick of the gloom
sends shrills through the air of this shadowy room

[verse one]
it appears the storm has p-ssed
at last, i see the aftermath
cheers to the fall that i once knew too well
the winds that set my sail awry
the binds that tied my life shanghaied
a new future awaits outside
the mark to null and void my lies
a sudden change of heart
the sudden peace on my ramparts
you’ve made your way home, my man
you’ve found your place, your plans

[chorus one]
i will rise again
i will rise again
i will rise again
i will rise again
(repeat x3)

[verse two]
i’m gonna write my own prophecy
so i’m trying be prophetic
but i’m drowning in this rhetoric
these feeling’s so unsettling
rose above the anxious, nearly manic manifesto
that had manifested itself in my mind and made me paralyzed
truth be told, i’ll tell no lies, about the side i usually hide
today i chose to give a vision of my story’s own elision
typically, it’s privy with provisions in the taboo
of the pessimistic precondition living on the moon
after all the galangal has made up his decision
to open up his life and go escape his mental prison
magic hat attacked, with parallax, and in a cloud of smoke
appeared the man who rose again and author-shipped these words i wrote
then suddenly, the rain is gone, the pain is gone, maturity complete at long
last in contrast to everything in my past before i chose to reach for the life i that dreamt of
what i meant was

[break]
the light are shining
i’ve exited the cave
the world is fully clear now
i’ve crawled out of my grave
with my eyes, i see potential in perfect clarity
witness life from every angle as i hunt for better things

[chorus two]
i will rise again
i will rise again
i will rise again
i will rise again
(repeat 1x)
