Cassandra (Acoustic)
[00:04.16] I used to see the future and now I see nothing
[00:08.15] They cut out my eyes and sent me home packing
[00:13.73] To pace around the kitchen for scraps of inspiration
[00:18.24] Crying like Cassandra, I
[00:22.49] Used to tell the future, but they cut out my tongue
[00:25.67] And left me doing laundry to think on what I'd done
[00:29.93] It wasn't me, it was the song
[00:39.22] I used to move into the future and bring it all back
[00:44.01] Let it bleed through my fingers, a treasure in my hands
[00:47.99] Now I creep out when there's no one about
[00:51.97] 'Cause they put crosses on the doors to try and keep me out
[00:57.29] The gardеn's overgrown
[01:02.86] And I run in the middle of thе road
[01:11.89] Well, can you see me?
[01:15.60] I cannot see you
[01:20.13] Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
[01:24.65] In this blindness I'm condemned to
[01:28.09] Well, can you hear me?
[01:31.55] I cannot hear you
[01:36.07] And every song I thought I knew, I've been deafened to
[01:40.84] And there's no one left to sing to
[01:53.06] And all the gods have been domesticated
[01:57.31] And Heaven is now overrated
[02:01.04] And the churches, they all closed their doors
[02:04.75] Well, you can take your complaints straight to the Lord
[02:08.48] I try to still look with wonder on the world
[02:12.20] As the roses bloom
[02:15.38] And the riot van still plainly in view
[02:24.40] Well, can you see me?
[02:27.86] I cannot see you
[02:31.84] Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
[02:36.63] In this blindness that I'm condemned to
[02:40.08] Well, can you hear me?
[02:43.54] I cannot hear you
[02:47.79] And every song I thought I knew, I've been deafened to
[02:52.83] And there's no one left to sing to
[02:57.87] (Ooh)
[03:01.60] (Ooh)
[03:05.31] (Ooh, oh)
[03:13.55] Take me back (Ooh)
[03:16.46] Oh, drunken gods of slaughter (Ooh)
[03:20.20] You know I've always been your favourite daughter (Ooh, oh)
[03:26.83] Well, can you see me?
[03:30.54] I cannot see you
[03:34.53] And everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view
[03:39.32] In this blindness I'm condemned to
[03:42.77] And if I run fast enough
[03:46.49] Well, could I break apart
[03:51.01] As empires crumble and cathedrals flatten in my heart?
