The last monarch of the modern world, silenced by fame
A tragic maiden, this Cordelia, can’t speak his name, and we’re still
Standing on the edge of it, trying to find the light on the day
Said it all x 3
But now I’m stranded out of love and divided ‘tween the dark and the grey
Said it all x 3
Divided love within Cordelia, can’t make a sound
We improvise in isolated ways
Pray sing that pitch of the wayward song
The past was pining for the present day, now can’t go home
The road to nowhere, wanna abdicate
Walk down from thrones, I’m the All-One
Standing on the edge of it, trying to find the light on the day
Said it all x 3
But now I’m stranded out of love and divided ‘tween the dark and the grey
Said it all x 3
Just standing ‘tween the separate times, can’t make this sentiment stay
Said it all x 3
I can’t believe the answers, I don’t accept the questions at all these days
Said it all x 3
And when we try to match these heartbeats, syncopate these dead streets, cast on your own
Syncing up, out of time
Out of space, out of time
Can’t sing no more, we’ll just take a long holiday
Dance in the sun until the dark
Chanter les mots of Cordelia
Standing on the edge of it, trying to find the light on the day
Said it all x 3
But now I’m stranded out of love and divided ‘tween the dark and the grey
Said it all x 3
Out standing ‘tween the separate times, can’t make this sentiment stay
Said it all x 3
I can’t accept the answers, I won’t accept that I’m in the same strange place
Said it all x 3
