Guardian of the Nexus

Verse 1

Pennsylvanian ink

Two writers on the brink

Horsham heat in June

Grimm tales beneath a moon

Joe and Ralph began

Developing a plan

Pre-Chorus

She holds the tome

In this middle realm

Finding the falseblood home

Taking the metal helm

Chorus

It all began with Sela Mathers

Guardian of the Nexus

A woman tasked with teaching

Right from wrong

Sela Mathers

Guardian of the Nexus

Turning the pages of a fable

A million lifetimes long

Verse 2

Sela bears the weight

Choosing every fate

From German cart and blood

Rising through the mud

Belinda wants the war

Through every paper door

Pre-Chorus

She holds the tome

In this middle realm

Finding the falseblood home

Taking the metal helm

Chorus

It all began with Sela Mathers

Guardian of the Nexus

A woman tasked with teaching

Right from wrong

Sela Mathers

Guardian of the Nexus

Turning the pages of a fable

A million lifetimes long

Bridge

Skye takes the book

Daughter of the war

Skye takes the look

Through the open door

Oz and Alice and Robyn with the bow

Monsters and hellchilds and Liesel in the snow

Watch it go

Watch it burn

Watch it go

Chorus

It all began with Sela Mathers

Guardian of the Nexus

A woman tasked with teaching

Right from wrong

Sela Mathers

Guardian of the Nexus

Turning the pages of a fable

A million lifetimes long

Post-Chorus

The Nexus burns

The pages turn

The fire grows

The blood flows

The fire grows

The blood flows

Final Chorus

It all began with Sela Mathers

Guardian of the Nexus

A woman tasked with teaching

Right from wrong

Sela Mathers

Guardian of the Nexus

Turning the pages of a fable

A million lifetimes long

Turning the pages

A million lifetimes long
