Ophelia Lyrics

Album: Ophelia

Sweet child once, lingering in bliss

 holding out for your lover’s kiss

Yet dark visions cloud your mind

crimes to be committed by your kind

The kingdom’s torn, the love is lost

You’re just the pawn in this crazy game

Fair maid – plunged into distress

Weird like the birds you start to sing

then rushing down into the silent deep

Where does it end – how did it all begin?

Ophelia, you’re prone to madness

Outrageous deed, misled desire

Your unconscious soul is set afire

Your flesh and blood killed by his hand

your mind giving up the final stand

Cruel destiny pulls you deep into the mire

You’re just the pawn in this crazy game

Fair maid – plunged into distress

Weird like the birds you start to sing

then rushing down into the silent deep

Where does it end – how did it all begin?

Ophelia, you’re prone to madness
