Conscientia (Anima Hatter)

[Intro] (Anima) "Here is a lady with a glorious talent and a most wonderful voice." "Just calling to see if you'd followed your conscience yet." "It takes time to crack a pearl, that's alright, it just makes that jewel a lot more desirable" "Are you my conscience?" "Y-y-y-yeah, I'm your conscience" [Verse 1] Met a girl who's world is a whirl of hurled burrs Curled was her hair, sir she's in hell I observed, her stare, she inhaled Took a breathe and then left, like Ishmael To a wilting, wilderness with will teared She wilted and entered an abyss, well What's she supposed to do? When the risk held, could rip her to shreds, in instant And her intent, was to inject an inner sense Of innocence to the insolents Damn, ah The sinner let's, in, things that threaten your inners, yet She wanted to help me, but I was so unkempt I kept telling her to step, but she whispered gently "Mister, let's see, you've slipped up many, a time Stop following Lamith Tramell, please!" A tear escaped Secreted from glands Cascaded, till it, created a land I was patient as I waited with hands.. Open She waved out a strand Of her hair, as she went up to stand Took my hand, and said to me "Dan, what's wrong" I said "nothing grand"... Face confirmed concern appropriate She's a pearl but she glared with, cold fear.. She comes from Conscientia A place made of glazed paves, it's so clear She appraised my soul, oh weird Cos we share the same, soul dear And what's the name of this dame She whispered faster: "My name is, Anima Hatter" [Break] "See life, a future, hinges on each of a thousand choices... living is making choices!" "Choice, the problem is choice." (Anima) "You've been developing a distinctly feminine anima and I do not like it." [Verse 2] The choices we're given, interwoven decisions I was closed up by thinking, in closed up positions The precision of seeing visions, in unwilling prisons, can leave you feeling Like your future's a tip man But seeing villains imprisoned in prisms of spilling schisms Starts to make me think damn I'm living alright, matter fact, I'm living, alright? Oh my gosh I'm living the life Compared to others in constant carnage, I live in the light Compared to others that suffer despondent cities of strife Anima told me Lamith a "demon in a dress She's using you", But I'm enthused by her caress Consumed by the fumes that she exudes, from her blessed Bloomed figure, can't see she'll soon ruin me, I guess You learn the hard way She kissed me on my neck, step to the Alleys of Intemperance A place that can carry intents against Moral values that we have see, it is intense And there we go Lamith Tramell say "hey let's go" But I don't know, man I don't know But she say "c'mon, lets go To dark alleys, furthermore Let's follow sin until we old" I said "no, now let me go" But she held on, tore her clothes And everybody know that we just go Everybody know that we just go Been doing this, but I don't know Don't wanna do this anymore I don't wanna do this anymore But I don't think that I can go I don't think that I can cope I don't think that I can cope I don't think that I can cope [Mr. Guide] This exactly what happens, when we live like this What temptation can do to a man [Verse 3] Anima told me this would happen But I was so obtuse I had no clue I was distracted She looked at me, moved By the views I had captured I walked away, she pursued She said "it's cool, in fact it's fine that You went through, what you went through" I said "why's that?" (huh?) And I said "why's that?" She said "go to Seas of Memories Crystal ball of Mynd, thats Where you'll find recipes That'll bring you right back to the fine past" *Age Ten* Kerry annoyed that I turned her down So she went to get some boys To go and jump me wow (Wow) But all I did was turn around Turned the other cheek, left Got up off the ground She wept that I never frowned Just had a smile on me, like a funny clown *Age Nine* Girl tried to kiss me when no-one around But I felt it was wrong, so I pushed her down That's the same year Naomi had asked me out Gave her a hug, cos I'd said "no" and she teared out *Thirteen* I knew girls that had been around I mean they thirteen and they'd been around What the hecks the conscience that we live in? Cos this the game that we live in A place that's viscous with sin and I'm tryna be better than them
