Ophelia

listen, girl
the world has no place for you
listen, girl
this world will not be kind to you

you must learn to
quiet your suspicions
abort all your missions
quell all your doubts
forget your girlish visions
quit this indecision
or you'll be found out

Ophelia: restless, dreaming
lying in her bed of flowers
Ophelia: sinking, drowning
water loves you more than the others
water loves you the most

listen, child
your word means nothing around here
listen, child
your maidenhood is all that they hold dear

you must learn to
hold your tongue in conversation
submit to your deprecation
remember your place
hold fast to propriety
surrender to society
or you'll be replaced

Ophelia: restless, dreaming
lying in her bed of flowers
Ophelia: sinking, drowning
water loves you more than the others
water loves you the most

Ophelia: restless, dreaming
lying in her bed of flowers
Ophelia: sinking, drowning
water loves you more than the others
water loves you more than your brother
water loves you more than your prince
water loves you the most
