Cassandra
Down in the street they're all singing and shoutingStaying alive though the city is deadHiding their shame behind hollow laughterWhile you are crying alone on your bed
Pity, Cassandra that no one believed youBut then again you were lost from the startNow we must suffer and sell our secretsBargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstoodNow the last day is dawningSome of us wanted but none of us wouldListen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nightsNobody knew how to fightAnd we were caught in our sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn't believeyou really had the powerI only saw it as dreams you would weaveUntil the final hour
So in the morning your ship will be sailingNow that your father and sister are goneThere is no reason for you lingerYou're grieving deeply but still moving on
You know the future is casting a shadowNo one else sees it, but you know your fatePacking your bags, being slow and thoroughKnowing though you're late that ship is sure to wait
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstoodNow the last day is dawningSome of us wanted but none of us wouldListen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nightsNobody knew how to fightAnd we were caught in out sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn't believeyou really had the powerI only saw it as dreams you would weaveUntil the final hour
I watched her ship leaving harbor at sunriseSails almost slack in the cool morning rainShe stood on deck, just a tiny figureRigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstoodNow the last day is dawningSome of us wanted but none of us wouldListen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nightsNobody knew how to fightAnd we were caught in out sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn't believeyou really had the powerI only saw it as dreams you would weaveUntil the final hour(I'm sorry Cassandra)
