You've got snakes in your red hair, they won't let you go
Taking the blame for the fall of the world
The cross that you bare leaves you out in the cold
Putting the blame on the girl
Always so beautiful
Like so many gone before
They came to silence you
Forevermore
But I'll believe in you, oh, oh
Cassandra, Cassandra
You know what the future holds
(But no one believes you)
Cursed to be prophet
They think it's a lie you told
(But why would you need to?)
Cassandra, Cassandra
If I could just sit with you
We two could conspire and
We'd make them listen
You only tell the truth
You're fated to madness, it's out of your hands
Destined to say what no one wants to know
I'm knocking you up like the hourglass sands
Why can't they just let you go?
Always so beautiful
Like so many gone before
They came to silence you
Forevermore
But I'll believe in you, oh, oh
Cassandra, Cassandra
You know what the future holds
(But no one believes you)
Cursed to be prophet
They think it's a lie you told
(But why would you need to?)
Cassandra, Cassandra
If I could just sit with you
We two could conspire and
We'd make them listen
You only tell the truth
Cassandra, Cassandra
You know what the future holds
(But no one believes you)
Cursed to be prophet
They think it's a lie you told
(But why would you need to?)
Cassandra, Cassandra
If I could just sit with you
We two could conspire and
We'd make them listen
You only tell the truth
