Cassandra
[00:14.70] I used to see the future and now I see nothin'
[00:18.53] They cut out my eyes and sent me home packin'
[00:23.31] To pace around the kitchen for scraps of inspiration
[00:28.10] Cryin' like Cassandra, I
[00:31.55] I used to tell the future, but they cut out my tongue
[00:35.80] And left me doin' laundry to think on what I'd done
[00:39.52] It wasn't me, it was the song
[00:49.08] I used to move into the future and bring it all back
[00:54.14] Let it bleed through my fingers, a treasure in my hands
[00:58.38] Now I creep out when there's no one about
[01:02.37] 'Cause they put crosses on the doors to try and keep me out
[01:07.68] The gardеn's overgrown
[01:13.54] And I run in the middle of thе road (Ooh)
[01:23.08] Well, can you see me?
[01:26.80] I cannot see you
[01:30.80] Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
[01:35.56] In this blindness I'm condemned to
[01:39.02] Well, can you hear me?
[01:43.02] I cannot hear you
[01:47.25] Every song I thought I knew, I've been deafened to
[01:51.77] And there's no one left to sing to
[02:03.93] All the gods have been domesticated
[02:08.70] And Heaven is now overrated
[02:12.16] And the churches, they all closed their doors
[02:16.13] But you can take your complaints straight to the Lord
[02:19.60] I try to still look with wonder on the world
[02:23.84] As the roses bloom
[02:27.30] And the riot van still plainly in view
[02:36.33] Well, can you see me?
[02:39.51] I cannot see you
[02:44.31] Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
[02:48.83] In this blindness that I'm condemned to
[02:52.01] Well, can you hear me?
[02:55.74] I cannot hear you
[03:00.25] Every song I thought I knew, I've been deafened to
[03:05.03] And there's no one left to sing to
[03:10.08] (Ooh)
[03:14.06] (Ooh)
[03:18.05] (Ooh, oh)
[03:27.35] Take me back (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[03:29.73] Oh, drunken gods of slaughter (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[03:34.24] You know I've always been your favourite daughter (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[03:40.89] Well, can you see me?
[03:44.87] I cannot see you
[03:49.12] Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
[03:57.38] And if I run fast enough
[04:01.63] Could I break apart
[04:05.34] As empires crumble and cathedrals flatten in my heart?
