[Lyric] Storytime (Voice Among The Many)

[Intro]
Standing here motionless
Dismissing the consequence
Wrapped in blanket of
Silent denial
The fun is to forget

[Verse 1]
Boardered up in the basement
My mind out of the room
Unchained but unable to move
Remember the tale heard in an echo
From a generation ago
Somehow etching its back way in my soul
I think I'm gonna stay down here
I think it has a somewhat better feel
Than wherever I would have to deal with whatever filled
This newly vacant space
I could just live a life
Without staring it directly in the eye
If I don't edify a need to pry
No cause to deny
[Chorus]
Don't ever let me bear what I can't describe
Shut it down in order to survive
It shouldn't ever be more than storytime
Instead of a part of my life

[Verse 2]
Suddenly without warning
I may have uttered a word
Small, discreet and specifically raw
But unfortunately heard

[Interlude]
One day I fear I'll utter more

[Chorus]
Don't ever let me bear what I can't describe
Shut it down in order to survive
It shouldn't ever be more than storytime
Instead of a part of my life

[Bridge]
A part of my life
(My life)
Instead of being a part of my life
(You'll never feel the same)
(You'll never bleach that stain)
You'll never feel the same
You'll never bleach that stain
You can't always look away
[Outro]
I could pray that it had all been paved
But every phrase makes it more engraved
So convex the concave
And verbalise everything stowed away
