Scheherazade - Sparks

Scheherazade, you enslave me

Others begged, crying «save me»

Wasted words, hatred tore me

Scheherazade, tell me stories

Ships at sea, all imagined

Bravery, all imagined

Bloodless blood, colorblindness

Scheherazade, who’s behind this?

Scheherazade, there’s a sameness

To the world in its plainness

But your worlds are on fire

Filled with lust

Filled with liars

Once upon a time

Very, very long ago

Once upon a time

Very, very far away

All I want are illusions

Scheherazade, no conclusions

Every night, entertain me

No repeats, entertain me

Ships at sea, all imagined

Bravery, all imagined

Bloodless blood, colorblindness

Scheherazade, you’re behind this

Scheherazade, Scheherazade, Scheherazade, Scheherazade

I won’t kill you
