Overture to Ophelia

from Collage by The Party Accident

/

lyrics

At battles end with all the heroes gone
The swords and shields all seem to lose their sheen
No soldiers here, these all have gone
Just boys whose bodies fill the scene

Now time has passed and battles memory fades
The queen brings peace and hope across the land
The castle towers grow taller still
So she can see all she commands

But everywhere the sun reveals the day
We know that night will come to banish light
An evil lurks and waits to strike
Under the cover of the night

Ophelia your brother’s dead
Ophelia we seek revenge
Ophelia your armies wait
To fight and seal the bitch queen’s fate

Ophelia, Ophelia, Ophelia Ophelia

Ophelia our cause is strong
We need to see the bitch queen gone
Ophelia in gold and green
Ophelia our rightful queen

Lead us into battle now our queen

Ophelia, Ophelia

Now time has passed and battles memory fades
The queen brings peace and hope across the land

Hiding away in the forest
These soldiers are all that remains
Of what was once the King’s army
But now with their loyalties strained
Two queens but who do we fight for
We won’t be defeated again

We see the storm clouds gathering overhead
And hear the trumpets fanfare ring
Our choice to fight Queen of the night
Or for the sister of the King

Ophelia
