Maya & The Wolf - Operus

Wandering through her shadow side

Maya wonders what lay beyond the fences her ancestors built long ago

Heart racing faster than her feet could carry

Face pale in the moonlight above

Almost silently she slipped into the night

Mind racing with the tales of caution her mother spout at her bedside

Of the wolf, born to devour

But how she hears him now howling on the wind

Begging her to enter the forest

Hear the call to adventure

Arousing the desire to go out where you may find yourself

Naked in the fire

All, pouring from the emptiness into the void

The call to adventure

Trying to escape from external abnormal conditions of being

Existence that we have established ourselves

Enter the forest where it’s darkest

The way you know no one has gone before

You in the forest where it’s darkest

Echoing through the trees

Maya

The answers that you are seeking can be found

In the outlying spaces

Hear the call to adventure

Arousing the desire to go out where you may find yourself

Naked in the fire

All, pouring from the emptiness into the void

The call to adventure

Create, sustain, destroy

Trying to escape from external abnormal conditions of being

Existence that we have established ourselves

At first everything was good

Everything was fine

Everything was just as it should be

Until the day opening her eyes

Everything went wrong

Something she could not unsee

Maya and the wolf

Reflection and the shadow

Standing face to face

In the outlying spaces

Hear the call to adventure

Arousing the desire to go out where you may find yourself

Naked in the fire

All, pouring from the emptiness into the void

The call to adventure

Create, sustain, destroy
