Oxenfree demo by Libby Tidley Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2017

This is not the story we thought we’d play
Who’d have ever dreamed it’d be this way
A shadow in the darkness with blood red eyes
Wearing a broken-hearted girl disguise

Oh, why’d they never listen, will they leave us be?
Sick and twisted game have they picked out for me?
I’m getting pretty tired of this endless loop
I don’t have the patience to lose

Take my hand together we'll run
End this night before we see the sun
Nobody knows the horrors we’ll face
We’ll find a way to play it safe

There is more than meets the eye
Your haunted, ghostly lullaby
Here I come, are you ready for me?
Olly Olly, Olly Olly oxenfree

Hangman on the wall seems a bit naive
Although I guess they haven’t had the chance to leave
Reverted back to children with every test
Asking for answers I’d never guess
Just, put him down and let her go, have me instead
Maybe they just cannot get inside my head
Consequences burning every single step
We’ve not got much time left

Take my hand together we'll run
End this night before we see the sun
Nobody knows the horrors we’ll face
But we’ll find a way to play it safe

There is more than meets the eye
Your haunted, ghostly lullaby
Well, here I come, are you ready for me?
Olly Olly, Olly Olly oxenfree

Tune into my signal do you understand my pain
Every time they show me him, I want to run away
I’ve never gotten angry to the point of no return
But if they want to play with fire, they're gonna get burned

This is not the story we thought we’d play
Who’d have ever dreamed it’d be this way
A shadow in the darkness with blood red eyes
Wearing a broken-hearted girl disguise

Take my hand together we'll run
End this night before we see the sun
Nobody knows the horrors we’ll face
But we’ll find a way to play it safe
There is more than meets the eye
Your haunted, ghostly lullaby
Here I come, are you ready for me?
Olly Olly, Olly Olly oxenfree

Well, here I come, are you ready for me?
Olly Olly, Olly Olly oxenfree
