In The Woods... - The Recalcitrant Protagonist lyrics

All the archetypes surround me Different faces, different names They are the projections of beyond Ancient cast of the eternal play There are only so many stories Which we may find ourselves within To repeat over and over Until you learn the lesson therein All the archetypes surround me Different faces, different names They are the projections of beyond I found I had only a minor role In the play of my own destiny I had to improvise my role off-stage Beg the audience for clemency I'm the only one who hasn't seen the script And every day's like a well-rehearsed lie And though it seems they're selling tickets to my dreams I'd like to kiss the theater goodbye
