Departure of Venus

from Cloud 9 ep by Fres Thao

lyrics

Trouble finds her, when she tries to avoid it /
You can smell it in the air, it’s a poison

She getting tired of the way --- the coin / flips
The irony - follows in her footsteps

You see, the twister - rip / her with its motion
(She in a dream on repeat, decomposing)

The only feeling – ISSS - to keep moving ~
BEEN doing what you doing, show and proving

The brick road to home is just too cold
Perhaps, change’ll bring her back to zero

She fell asleep at the feet of the scarecrow

Awoken up, -- she need a real hero
The mirror shows she’s been through war

More than she could handle but she still stay ---- strong
A young soul in search of a better world

The pain hurts, but she keeps moving on


The only path she has now is the unknown
The other path’s the last thing she did wrong

It’s given way to the shape of this outcome
She all alone TIL she find how to get home

Break

The only path she has now is the unknown
The other path’s the last thing she did wrong

It’s given way to the shape of this outcome
She all alone TIL she find how to get home

Trouble finds her, when she try to avoid it /
You can smell it in the air, it’s a poison

She getting tired of the way - coin / flips
The irony - follows in her footsteps

you see the way they behave, gets her upset
ANOTHER day she’d forget, but ToDAYS different

making way for the ones who keep swimming
(it’s a shame they don’t see the waves rippling)

the ocean SHE SAILS is way too cold
perhaps change / will bring her back to zero

She fell ASLEEP AT the BEACH with the SEAGULLS

Awoken up, cuz she need TO BE the hero
The mirror shows she’s BRAVED the STORM

More than she could handle AND she’s still STAY strong
A young soul in search of a better world

The pain hurts, AND she keeps moving on


The only path she has now is the unknown
The other path’s the last thing she did wrong

It’s given way to the shape of this outcome
She all alone TIL she find how to get home
