The Prophecy

Hand on the throttleThought I caught lightning in a bottleOh, but it's gone againAnd it was writtenI got cursed like Eve got bittenOh, was it punishment?Pad around when I get homeI guess a lesser woman would've lost hopeA greater woman wouldn't begBut I looked to the sky and saidPleaseI've been on my kneesChange the prophecyDon't want moneyJust someone who wants my companyLet it once be meWho do I have to speak toAbout if they can redoThe prophecy?Cards on the tableMine play out like fools in a fable, ohIt was sinking inSinking in, ohSlow is the quicksandPoison blood from the wound of the pricked handOh, still I dream of himPleaseI've been on my kneesChange the prophecyDon't want moneyJust someone who wants my companyLet it once be meWho do I have to speak toAbout if they can redoThe prophecy?And I sound like an infantFeelin' like the very last drops of an ink penA greater woman stays coolBut I howl like a wolf at the moonAnd I look unstableGathered with a coven round a sorceress' tableA greater woman has faithBut even statues crumble if they're made to waitI'm so afraid I sealed my fateNo sign of soulmatesI'm just a paperweightIn shades of greigeSpending my last coin so someone will tell meOohOohOohOohPleaseI've been on my kneesChange the prophecyDon't want moneyJust someone who wants my companyLet it once be meWho do I have to speak toAbout if they can redoThe prophecy?Who do I have to speak toTo change the prophecy?Hand on the throttleThought I caught lightning in a bottle, ohBut it's gone againPad around when I get homeI guess a lesser woman would've lost hopeA greater woman wouldn't begBut I looked to the sky and saidPlease
