I’m a Barbie girl, in a Barbie world  
Life in plastic, it’s fantastic.  
You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere.  
Imagination, life is your creation

To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true  
Out of all the fellas in the world, she belongs to me  
But it was just my 'magination, running away with me  
It was just my 'magination, running away with me

Silently she waits, silently she contemplates  
She can make 'em tremble  
You know the reason why  
She’s a flame ('ame - 'ame - 'ame - 'ame) flamethrower  
She’s a flamethrower at night

Beyond the realm of what  
Across the streams of hopes and dreams  
Where things are really not

Try to remember how the story goes  
I’m by the side of the road  
the moon was high the trees all black as coal.

Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away  
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air  
You better watch out, there may be dogs about  
I’ve looked over Jordan and I have seen  
Things are not what they seem

Living is easy with eyes closed,  
Misunderstanding all you see.  
It’s getting hard to be someone, but it all works out.  
It doesn’t matter much to me

No more talk of darkness, forget these wide-eyed fears

Hiding in daylight, biding it’s time  
The monster that wakes in your sleeping mind.

Inside of you, you leave it unseen  
But it’s coming to life in your wildest dreams.

A spectral spirit kingdom rises in storm screens covered by ice  
Night emits its shadow  
And there’s no difference between ravens  
They have come for me, they will come to me  
To the cursed realms of the winterdemons
