[The New Albion Radio Hour] A3 S6 - Storyville Station
Constance: The girl felt scared and so unsure The tales they told, the thousand doors She saw the wolf in the forest and bed And thought “it’s better to be a wolf instead”
So she buys a ticket to Storyville Station Where pages enfold the lost ones taken And every day just goes by like a dream
Now the girl is a wolf full of fierce and guile She hunts her prey and runs the wild At last though, she is caught by man And now she sees an even better plan
So she buys a ticket to Storyville Station Where the players are cast before they’ve awaken And every day just goes by like a dream And seem is not to be Here now, here with me
As man she is mighty and tames the land ‘til soldiers come and above her stand But above the soldiers a general sits Who takes his orders straight from a Prince
So she buys a tickets to Storyville Station Where everyone’s wishing and the play eats the players And every day just goes by a like a dream
And seem is not to be Here now won’t you be now here with me All is not as always it might seem Dreamers lost in dreams within a dream
Now she’s the Prince staring at the King But the King he cracks, broken by something He gives up his gold, Kingdom, power and all The Prince must know what causes Kings to fall
Well he walked away from the top of the world All for the love of just one girl…
Storyville Station can never take The one who’s here now and awake The pages fall, the girl transcends The life that’s lived just in your head The show, the role she was lost within The opera she thought she starred in Where every day just goes by like a dream
