Ophelia

O maiden pale Ophelia
Your skin is white like diamonds in the snow
But they know
Madness and hysteria turned your flowers into stone

Fleurs-de-lis
Sweets to sweet

I can hear them mourning at my grave
Ophelia
Can you feel this madness in my veins
(Inside my veins)
Love and pain
This sighing fate
(She fades away, fades away)
I fade away into black waters

Confident black river streams tangle in your hair
White veils merge to snowbells like deadly poetry
All around you fleurs-de-lis on a white mortal bed

I can hear them mourning at my grave
Ophelia
Can you feel this madness in my veins
(Inside my veins)
Love and pain
This sighing fate
(She fades away, fades away)
I fade away into black waters

Maiden thou shalt not sin
Virgin suppress your will
Forces seduce your mind
Haunting a damsel's sleep

Phantom white Ophelia
Sings her prayers in water-lilly tears
Are turning red

Maiden thou shalt not sin
Maiden thou shalt redeem
Virgin suppress your will
Forces seduce your needs
Maiden thou shalt believe
Purity and decency

I can hear them mourning at my grave
Ophelia
Can you feel this madness in my veins
(Inside my veins)
Love and pain
This sighing fate
(She fades away, fades away)
I fade away into black waters

I hear them mourning
(Ophelia)
Why all this madness
(Ophelia)
Fleurs-de-lis
Ophelia
