lyrics

A Victorian and His Lace.

You may say I'll end alone
and you believe it will happen soon.
but after the hours and I'm back in my cell,
The privacy of my room.

I may be trapped, but here I'm happy
because there's only two things in this place
one is my lavish imagination
and the other is of course, my lace.

I dress appropriately, because I have to
but you shall never know,
for when I'm out of your horrid presence
I can put on quite the show.

My hair, my cloth, it's all a facade
to keep from your watchful eye
but with my lace, I'm an aristocrat,
an ophelia, who turns her head and sighs.

You think you control me, and maybe that's true.
but you hold me for only so long
For once I am free, and back in my cell,
The doctors cant even hear my song

among my hair, my cloth, my chains
and the precautions I take to conceal in this place,
my secret is this, something you miss,
is you can never part a Victorian and His Lace.
