lirik lagu kr. ox - nightmares of andersen
[verse 1]
nightmares of andersen haunted my childhood a lot, that’s a plot
plot where i’m swallowed by marsh with loaf that i trod, then i drop
drop to a devil winery, i was iced, i was losing life
big traumatized, mama out of sight
all of a sudden, all crawl out my mind
i swear i hear angel cry
who was crying?
the wail so distorted, i couldn’t recognize
might be my grandparents i realize, they arrived recent
they travel a distance, crossing regions, for decent medicine
they countryside peasant
reason why i feel distant
reason why when the mumble get clear: granddaddy’s dead, but i’m acting indifferent
know it’s dramatic event, so me at my mama’s command
as saying no smile on the funeral, so i act like the gloomy russian
outside the room of the mansion, fusion of mantra and lament
loud as it is as i listen, overhear it it’s my mama’s complaints:
now that i got the seven~day mission plus ten procession to scam some reverence
to your buddha mom’s d~mn conviction, dehuman religion, those rigid convention
why i still gotta capitulate? to sing this dead man serenade
if i get drowsy the next day, i’ll slip into marsh in your white parade
have i just heard ‘marsh’?
[pre~chorus]
yeah there’s a marsh in front of me
feel like a shot of fear well in me
crawly nightmare it grabbed hold of me
when i tried to cross, i dare not see
suddenly, i feel triple my gravity
am i heading to the devil winery?
thank god, i feel the warm hand of my kin
woah
[chorus]
kid, the bread is for your breakfast
don’t step on it
if you step on it
you’ll get d~mned
[verse 2]
nightmares of andersen’s shrill, year later still, sh~t gettin’ real
scene of the funeral instill, marsh been congealed into fear yet ain’t heal
reality checkin’ can’t tell, cuz reality fleck span the tale
till reality the drug cartel trade the soup with my grandma’s bereavement ordeal
and break the news, i can preview
same mansion, same mantra, same lament, man i see the views
this time no taboo, mom forget too
leave the venue for my cousin’s room out here we laugh at videos
fear flag follow funny fad
marsh morphing into marshmallow
path passed by procession has
steer clear of swamp, it’s all settled
i just came up and i ponder and wonder if my nonchalant manner get god’s punished
and what a blunder i failed to be conscious it’s my father lost his own mother and father
had to keep head above water
how did he get out of marsh
i just lit up my torch, see from afar, marsh
just as i trying to run
back to cry in mom’s arms
i felt my leg strapped
and watched the land ascended
[chorus]
kid, the bread is for your breakfast
don’t step on it
if you step on it
you’ll get d~mned
[verse 3]
nightmares of andersen changed their image and came to visit at daytime
right here it sent the message: spray them with love and i gotta remain kind
from time to time, my mind don’t chime with my conduct i wonder why i’m inclined
to fly into fury like every time when they just mix up like two friends of mine
i hide my crying my arrogance won’t certify this feeling to come to light
can’t empathize i thought it’s for me exclusively it’s youthful shy
it seems like subconscious pride jeopardize myself like boomerang
it amplified especially when they turn back at me, zhu ain’t lie
so i like it when they turn their face at me
but i’m just dodging nightmare it grew stealthily
and i extended my eyes far as i can see
grew longer the marsh longer the marsh
i’m anxious started dashing in the rain
but i fell flat on my face cuz the ground slippery
i get up to find my dad walk alongside me
kid, it’s long been my dream
to get outta countryside, tired of farm sh!t
used to be like you in home i act loner kid
isolate myself from illiterate parents upstairs
it’s indeed a nightmare, lucky me i made it here
know still i’m a roadside stand, hope you a chef
you really realize my hidden wish
i never told ya, my apology
unwilling to accept you as a teen
i realize when my parents say ‘you’re already better than us’, it’s a lie
i realize academic deceive me, i stand on giant shoulder to reach the sky
i realize my dad went through the same thing, i can read between the lines
so i realize why could he get outta marsh: cuz there’s love in mind
[outro: reason]
the love dispel the nightmares of andersen
and here’s the instructions:
don’t step on your loaves of bread, eat them
cuz they’ll give you energy
and then you make a dash for the marsh
fast as you could
one shot may not be enough
halfway through, when you’re about to sink
drop your shoes and make a dash barefoot
and you’ll pass the marsh, safe and sound
remember, life’s a pipe
it ain’t a bottle
and the ones whose pipes get stuck by the mud
they go crazy
okay, i’m your reason, thank you
