To see is not to hear,
To hear is not to know,
Of that we both know,
So why do you change so?
The egg was found in a patch of grass,
An innocent looking patch of grass,
Grass straight and tall,
Grass completely normal.
Why can't you see?
These lies can't make you great,
The people only bait,
The monster waiting within.
You hatch the egg,
You feed it's beast,
You feed the dragon while it sleeps,
Not knowing the damage done.
Why can't you see the horrid things,
The horrid things you have done,
Only four words hold the damage,
Did you know that?
You feed the dragon,
You watch it grow,
It knows things you may never know,
Look, Ma, No hands!
Life is melting into misery,
Sleep shows you things,
Things you say and don't believe,
But they do.
You love the dragon,
You keep him growing,
Why do you keep him from his eternal sleep?
Look, Ma, No arms!
Your lies keep growing,
Every one grander than the last,
But I know your past,
Which is why you fear me.
When you make the decision,
The dragon is enraged,
Fire, Fire, Everywhere,
Death in the air,
This is your fate,
I'll leave you to it,
Look, Ma, I'm gone.

- Meaning: Don't lie about yourself to make yourself seem better, it will consume you. The lies are the dragon.
