Lift the Veil

 

Tell You What I See, She Said
(The Oracle)

Look high
Look low
For the Oracle
She spoke to me

“Lift the veil
Face all of your fears and fail
Surely you’ll see
You do what you do”

The death, the life
Railways into light
And what lies beyond, she knows

“You will look through the window
And tell me what you see

Then i will say
You’re no longer in the fray.”

“You won’t survive.
Put on your wings.
You’re going to fly away.

You will become what you become.
You’d better seize the day.”

“You will look through the window
And tell me what you see”, she said.

“Tell me what you see”, she said.
“Look through the window and tell me what you’ve done.

I will look through the window and tell you what i see.
I’ll tell you what i see”, she said.

“You won’t survive.
Look at yourself.
Baby, what you become, you become.”

“You will become what you become.”

And then she looked away.

“I’ll tell you what”, she said, “Seize the day.”
