OPHELIAC Song Lyrics
EMILIE AUTUMN
I'm your Opheliac
I've been so disillusioned
I know you'd take me back
But still I think: confusion
I couldn't be your friend
My world was to unstable
You might have seen the end
But you were never able
To keep me breathing
As the water rises up again
Before I'm swept away
You know the games I play and the words I say when I want my own way
You know the lies I tell when you've gone through hell and I say I can't stay
You know how hard it can be to keep believing in me
When everything and everyone becomes my enemy
And when there's nothing more you can do I'm gona blame it on you
It's not the way I wana be
I only know that in the end you will see it's the Opheliac in me?
It's the Opheliac in me?
I'm your Opheliac
My stockings prove my virtue
I'm open to attack
But I don't want to hurt you
Weather I swim or sink
That's no concern of yours now
How could you possibly think
You had the power to know how to keep me breathing as the water rises up again
Before I slip away
You know the games I play and the words I say when I want my own way
You know the lies I tell when you've gone through hell and I say I can't stay
You know how hard it can be to keep believing in me
When everything and everyone becomes my enemy
And when there's nothing more you can do I'm gona blame it on you
It's not the way I wana be
I only hope that in the end you will see it's the Opheliac in me?
It's the Opheliac in me
Studies show Intelligent girls are more depressed
Because they know
That the world that it can lie
I don't think for a bit they sit around and think every things gona be alright
They know who sides, shadows, shapes, a devil, a angel, no in-between
She speaks in third person so that she can forget that she's me
Doubt thou the stars on fire
Doubt thou the sun don't move
Doubt truth to be a liar
But never doubt
Doubt thou the stars on fire
Doubt thou the sun don't move
Doubt truth to be a liar
But never doubt
Doubt thou the stars on fire
Doubt thou the sun don't move
Doubt truth to be a liar
But never doubt
AM I?..
You know the games I play and the words I say when I want my own way
You know the lies I tell when you've gone through hell and I say I can't stay
You know how hard it can be to keep believing in me
When everything and everyone becomes my enemy
And when there's nothing more you can do I'm gona blame it on you
It's not the way I wana be
I only hope that in the end you will see
It's not my fault
You know the games I play and the words I say when I want my own way
You know the lies I tell when you've gone through hell and I say I can't stay
You know how hard it can be to keep believing in me
When everything and everyone becomes my enemy
And when there's nothing more you can do I'm gona blame it on you
It's not the way I wana be
