The Murder of an Apparition Lyrics

The perspective of her specter

The real me has defected

From the image in your minds

I've changed; I'm alive

But you're stuck on the previous pages

Now you're calling me a murderer

Because you don't see the same me

In my apparitions place

You're holding on too hard

You need to let it go

I need me to be free

But you're holding me in place

I'm flying up to heaven

But you're holding on my leg and

You try to grab it tighter

But now your hands around my throat

You think you know my spirit

But deep down you really fear it

You're holding on too hard

You need to let me go

The perspective of her specter

The real me has defected

From the image in your mind

I've changed; I'm alive

But you're stuck on the previous pages

Now you're calling me a murderer

Because you don't see the same me

In my apparitions place

The box is suffocating

It's holding me in

I need to grow

I want to be myself

I would kill the image of me

that's stuck in your mind

If, only for an instant, it meant

You'd see me for myself, just once

The perspective of her specter

The real me has defected

From the image in your minds

I've changed; I'm alive

But you're stuck on the previous pages

Now you're calling me a murderer

Because you don't see the same me

In my apparitions place

You're holding on too hard

You need to let it go

I need me to be free

But you're holding me in place

I'm flying up to heaven

But you're holding on my leg and

You try to grab it tighter

But now your hands around my throat

You think you know my spirit

But deep down you really fear it

You're holding on too hard

You need to let me go

The perspective of her specter

The real me has defected

From the image in your mind

I've changed; I'm alive

But you're stuck on the previous pages

Now you're calling me a murderer

Because you don't see the same me

In my apparitions place
