Ophelia is a reclamation of the tragic Shakespearean story.
lyrics
Verse 1
Ophelia, she hung her head in shame
While she waited around for everyone, but no one ever came
Ophelia, now hang your head and weep
No one wants your bleeding heart or your wretched soul to keep
Chorus
“Oh, but I was almost certain that on some level, he cared
Judging by the way he looked at me every time he stared
But it was no more than a figment of my naivety
Wishful thinking may well someday be the end of me”
Verse 2
Ophelia, she laid there, feeling used
While she begged him to reciprocate, and often he refused
Ophelia, when will you ever learn
To sever every tie that binds and let the bridges burn
Repeat Chorus // Instrumental Break
Bridge
Ophelia, he is not the man he seems
Ophelia, this was all part of his schemes
