Chiara’s Folly

If I run away, they can’t find me
there’s no proof, of what I do
so I make a game, always playing . . . playing you
and then I jump into the night

Closed eyes, if I fall the choice the is mine
last life, unless I keep on landing the right way

Oh yeah
Cos I’m too fast for you to see me shine
No I can’t stay, so sad
You can’t catch me, I leave your world behind
Steal you blind

If this perfection in my reflection troubles you
Too bad for you, cos it’s

My rhyme, if I fall the choice is mine
last life, unless I keep on landing the right way

Oh yeah
Cos I’m too fast for you to see me shine
No I can’t stay, so sad
You can’t catch me, I leave your world behind
Steal you blind (it’s all mine)

verse x2 solo

bd V3
If I twist and fall in the spin of it all, that’s ok
I’ll live to play another day. . .

Oh yeah
Cos I’m too fast for you to see me shine
No I can’t stay, so sad
You can’t catch me, I leave your world behind
Steal you blind (it’s all mine)

In case you missed it, you can also listen to Sea of Stars, Hale and Herfindal’s debut Fractalverse song, one that perfectly captures the heart of To Sleep in a Sea of Stars.
