INVINCIBLE
Halyse
(Being the [legitimate] Ninth)

This is the part where I close my eyes
This is the part where I shun out all the light
This is the part where I dream of all that had been
and all that I thought was right

This is the part where you turn around
This is the part where you gently let me down
This is the part where you leave me out on the streets
and the darkness burns so bright

Do you lie awake at night?

Tell me
How do you sleep so peacefully
knowing you're invincible, so invincible
Without you I can't find peace
I am so invisible, so invisible

This is the part where I close my eyes
This is the part where your words cut through like knives
This is the part where my dreams become could-have-beens
and my shadows come to life
This is the part where the light comes

How do you sleep so peacefully
knowing you're invincible, so invincible
Without you I can't find peace
I am so invisible, so invisible

This is the part where I close my eyes
This is the part where you turn around

Now I try to sleep peacefully
Become more invincible, less invisible
But your light still calls out to me
You are still invincible, still invincible

How do you sleep so peacefully
knowing you're invincible, so invincible
Because without you I can't find peace
You are so invincible, so invincible

APOLLO
Halyse
(Being the First among Firsts)

I watch you as you softly laugh
I see your eyes, they're gently slanted
You're cheeks are hollowed to a curve and
Your voice can be heard all throughout
And then I'd see you smile
The way your lips are parted and
How they'd slam together
Then you'd shut up and keep your mouth sealed for an hour
And it makes me wonder what could have been
Yes, it makes me wonder if I hadn't given up on you
 
And I'd wonder what it'd be like
If we just stood together
And let nothing get in our way
All the whispers and shouts
And all those in between them
If we just ignored them all
Then we could've been standing tall
Defy all the Greek and Roman gods then ask Apollo
To shed his light on us forevermore
Then you'd take my hand and promise me
You'll never let go
 
I see the life that passed us by
The times we laughed, the times we cried
And now I know just what I've missed as regrets start flooding through
The way you'd look at me
Your brown eyes, they could melt me
Your lashes stick to memory
And I can't fight the tears from falling down my cheeks
Whenever I'd think of how I let you go
And when you said you'd given up on me
 
And I'd wonder what it'd be like
If we just stood together
And let nothing get in our way
All the whispers and shouts
And all those in between them
If we just ignored them all
Then we could've been standing tall
Defy all the Greek and Roman gods then ask Apollo
To shed his light on us forevermore
Then you'd take my hand
and promise me
You'll never let go
 
Just turn around and you will see the sadness, baby, can't you feel it
I love you but I need to let you go
There are things in between us that keep us from being together
And there's the fact that we have given up
 
And I'd wonder what it'd be like
If years have passed and we were still together
If we both held on to our love forever
 
And I'd wonder what it'd be like
If we just stood together
And let nothing get in our way
All the whispers and shouts
And all those in between them
If we just ignored them all
Then we could've been standing tall
Defy all the Greek and Roman gods
Then ask Apollo to shed his light on us forevermore
Then you'd take my hand and promise me
You'll never let go

Halyse - Apollo

Some nights I can’t sleep
And I’d wonder what you dream about
Do you see me?
Do you see the times we’d lie awake
Under these sheets
With all of the seams between us sewn shut
All was fine

Cold nights on my own
Never felt so hollowed out
Too dark, alone, now that you have left me
I can’t breathe under these sheets
When all of the sheets between us split apart
Only a thread hangs on

I have been waiting for a sign from you
Anything that tells me we’re not through
And I have been hoping for the chance to say I’m sorry for the things I did not do
But each time I think I’m closer to the shadows, there’s a light that drowns the darkness
And I feel so confused
But I try to pull through
So I sleep just to see you
And I know it’s not true
But it’s better, so much better than nothing but blue

Long nights with myself
Reaching out in silence for anything to hold
because I confess, I still see us together
Lyin’ awake under these sheets
with all of our dreams alive and coming true
Tell me what more to do

I have been waiting for a sign from you
Anything that tells me we’re not through
And I have been hoping for the chance to say I’m sorry for the things I did not do
But each time I think I’m closer to the shadows, there’s a light that drowns the darkness
And I feel so confused
But I try to pull through
so I sleep just to see you
And I know it’s not true
But it’s better, so much better than nothing but blue

In any case, I like food.
