[Verse 1]
Scribbled visions on the ceiling
Chalk and paper scars the floor
A radio hums of distant dealings
Lock the cabinet, bar the door

[Pre-Chorus]
And someone hums a nursery rhyme
It crawls beneath the light
A shadow flickers lost in time
Unravelling the night

[Chorus]
I saw them running through the garden
Painted faces in a parade
With trembling hands, they offer riddles
And promises they never made

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, laughing in the maze
Ah-ah, secrets on their tongues

[Verse 2]
Windowless corridors, silent and narrow
Footsteps echo soft as a prayer
The man with four clocks says "Tomorrow
Is nothing but a name we wear"

[Pre-Chorus]
And who are you beneath the laughter
A mask upon a mask beneath the skin

[Chorus]
I saw them running through the garden
Painted faces in a parade
With trembling hands, they offer riddles
And promises they never made

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, laughing in the maze
Ah-ah, secrets on their tongues

[Bridge]
Paper crowns beneath the rafters
A chorus drifts through peeling walls
Faded banners, faded laughter
A marble bust in dusty halls

[Verse 3]
I met a girl with tangled ribbons
She swore she could predict the rain
Her mirror cracked with secret visions
Of stitched-up minds and numbered names

[Pre-Chorus]
And somewhere clocks are spinning faster
All the faces turned away

[Chorus]
I saw them running through the garden
Painted faces in a parade
With trembling hands, they offer riddles
And promises they never made

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, laughing in the maze
Ah-ah, secrets on their tongues
