She Believes a Myth
Sailing toward the land where the sun will set
She discovered a myth from an old teapot
She believes the lie that is an old story
In the middle of the ocean, floating like an allegory
The wind hasn’t blown, the waves haven’t reached her yet
The sun still shines, darkness hasn’t come yet
On the surface of the water, she enjoys a momentary peace
The night holds a nightmare that she will experience
This pitiful girl cannot see her hope is fake
The blame for killing her, who will take?
