Sparks — Scheherazade lyrics

Lyrics

Scheherazade, you enslave me Others begged, crying «save me»
Wasted words, hatred tore me Scheherazade, tell me stories
Ships at sea, all imagined
Bravery, all imagined
Bloodless blood, colorblindness
Scheherazade, who’s behind this?
Scheherazade, there’s a sameness
To the world in its plainness
But your worlds are on fire
Filled with lust
Filled with liars
Once upon a time
Very, very long ago
Once upon a time
Very, very far away
All I want are illusions
Scheherazade, no conclusions
Every night, entertain me No repeats, entertain me Ships at sea, all imagined
Bravery, all imagined
Bloodless blood, colorblindness
Scheherazade, you’re behind this
Scheherazade, Scheherazade, Scheherazade, Scheherazade
I won’t kill you
