Shalott

She's looked up with a spinning wheel

She can't recall what it was like to feel

She says this room is gonna be my grave

And there is no one who can save me

She sits down to hear colored thread

She knows lovers waking up in their beds

She says how long can

I live this way?

Is there no one

I can pay to let me go?'

Cause I'm half sick of shadows

I wanna see the sky

Everyone else can watch the sun goes down

So why can't

I?And it's raining and the stars are falling from the sky

And the wind, and the wind

I know it's cold

I've been waiting for the day

I will surely die

And it's here, and it's here for

I've been told

That I'll die before

I'm old and the wind

I know it's cold

She looks up to the mirrored glass

She sees a handsome horse and rider pass

She says that man's gonna be my death'

Cause he is all

I ever wanted in my life

I know he doesn't know my name

And that all the girls are all the same to him

But still

I've got to get out of this place'

Cause I don't think

I can face another night

Where I'm half sick of shadows

And I can't see the sky

Everyone else can watch as the tide comes in

So why can't

I?And it's raining and the stars are falling from the sky

And the wind, and the wind

I know it's cold

I've been waiting for the day

I will surely die

And it's here, and it's here for

I've been told

That I'll die before

I'm old and the wind

I know it's cold

But there's willow trees

And little breezes, waves and walls and flowers

And there's moonlight every single night

As I'm looked in these towers

So I'll meet my death but with my last breath

I'll sing to you my love

And he'll see my face in another place

And with that the glass above

Cracked into a million bits

And she cried out so the story fits

But then I could have guessed it all along'

Cause now some drama queen is gonna write a song for me

She went down to her little boat

And she broke the chains and began to float away

And as the blood froze in her veins

She said, well then that explains a thing or two'

Cause I know

I'm the cursed one

I know I'm meant to die

Everyone else can watch as their dreams untie

So why can't

I?And it's raining, and the stars are falling from the sky

And the wind, and the wind

I know it's cold

I've been waiting for the day

I will surely die

And it's here, and it's here, and it's here, and it's here

And it's here, it's finally here

And it's raining and the stars are falling from the sky

And the wind, and the wind

I know it's cold

I've been waiting for the day

I will surely die

And it's here, and it's here for

I've been told

That I'll die before

I'm old and the wind

I know it's cold
