Behind the Scenes (Part One)
Let me introduce the characters of the show
The real ones & who they try to be
U can choose who you'd like to know
& who u will forget by the end of the day
Can u see that girl who's supposed to be flying?
The one who took the fairy witch role
I watched her breaking down, crying
She didn't try to fight just let her self to fall
For some reason she didn't give her wings a try
But all I've seen that she was lost …in a blink of an eye
& can u see that man out there
The hanged one from the strings
The puppet, was the only role he could dare
& accept it for whatever pain it brings
I watched him as he realized
That the person out there is not him
When he felt he could never live undisguised
Feeling misery for the "puppet" man he had been
Again …he didn't give his strength a try
To let go of these strings
& he was also lost in a blink of an eye
& can u see that young man
I think he's the knight
With his great sword & his horse
Always ready for the battle to fight
