Pas de Deux: The Dance of Moxie and Mathias III

[Verse]
Devil or angel, she flies on dark wings
Listens to ravens, and kisses her king
The Devil of Stories; she's married him now
Starting her new life with flourish and bow...

[Chorus]
Don't worry, just stories
It's not your turn
Don't fear them; just hear how
Someone else burns

[Verse]
Cruelty her consort, and she is his queen
Writing together, they're felt but not seen
Dancing and music, and all of their art
Come now together and then tear apart...

[Chorus]
Don't worry, just stories
Not like it seems
Don't fear them; just merely
Part of your dreams

[Verse]
She's a bit whimsical, loves a romance
She sponsors comebacks, gives just one more chance
His is the tension, the plotting, the strife
He smiles as he writes like the edge of a knife...

[Chorus]
Don't worry, just stories
Not like it's real
Don't fear them; just hear how
Someone else feels...

[Verse]
After we've faced what we hate and we fear
The curtain falls slowly; the house lights appear
Now that it's over, love, how do you feel?
Isn't it nice to know none of it's real

[Chorus/Outro]
Don't worry, just stories
Not really true
Don't fear what
You know can't happen to you
Can't happen to you
Won't happen to you...
