Ophelia's Shadow |
| Gunn/Willcox/Geballe/Beavis) |
| She takes the night train |
| With her bible of dreams |
| A suitcase pretty pink |
| A cassette of fresh screams |
| Her treasures decompose |
| Her treasures decay |
| This is the Gospel |
| In the garden of delights |
| Ophelia can pretend |
| To be a priestess or a femme fatale |
| But Ophelia can’t escape her shadow |
| A little purse of promises |
| With which to elope |
| A butterfly net and a killing jar |
| To silence all her hopes |
| Ophelia’s shadow |
| Is haunting the humans |
| Ambushed by ghosts |
| And other aspects of her lonely heart |
| This is the Gospel |
| In the garden of delights |
| Ophelia is Joan’s, burning body |
| A little purse of promises |
| With which to elope |
| A butterfly net and a killing jar |
| To silence all her hopes |
| Can’t escape her shadow |
| Nor the givers of advice |
| Or the queue of emotional debts |
| Nor the virtues nor the vice |
| Sowing the seeds |
| Of the never never tree |
| This is the Gospel |
| In the garden of delights |
| Oh Ophelia |
| Come Ophelia |
| Sweet Ophelia |
| Oh Ophelia can’t escape her shadow |
| Dancing in their discos |
| Talking down their telephones |
| Eating in their restaurants |
| Visiting their homes |
| Trying on their clothes |
| Wearing their Skin And Bones |
| Ophelia |
| Ophelia |
| Come Ophelia |
| We decompose |
| Ophelia |
| Come Ophelia |
| Lets decay |
| Lets decay |
| Lets decay |
