Cassandra (Acoustic) - Florence + The Machine

Lyrics by：Florence Welch/Kid Harpoon

Composed by：Florence Welch/Kid Harpoon

I used to see the future and now I see nothin'

They cut out my eyes and sent me home packin'

To pace around the kitchen for scraps of inspiration

Cryin' like Cassandra

I used to tell the future but they cut out my tongue

And left me doin' laundry to think on what I'd done

It wasn't me it was the song

I used to move into the future and bring it all back

Let it bleed through my fingers a treasure in my hands

Now I creep out when there's no one about

'Cause they put crosses on the doors to try and keep me out

The garden's overgrown

And I run in the middle of the road

Ooh

Well can you see me

I cannot see you

Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view

In this blindness I'm condemned to

Well can you hear me

I cannot hear you

Every song I thought I knew I've been deafened to

And there's no one left to sing to

All the gods have been domesticated

And Heaven is now overrated

And the churches they all closed their doors

But you can take your complaints straight to the Lord

I try to still look with wonder on the world

As the roses bloom

And the riot van still plainly in view

Well can you see me

I cannot see you

Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view

In this blindness that I'm condemned to

Well can you hear me

I cannot hear you

Every song I thought I knew I've been deafened to

And there's no one left to sing to

Ooh

Ooh

Ooh oh

Take me back

Ooh ooh ooh

Oh drunken gods of slaughter

Ooh ooh ooh

You know I've always been your favourite daughter

Well can you see me

I cannot see you

Everything I thought I knew has fallen out of view

In this blindness that I'm condemned to

And if I run fast enough

Could I break apart

As empires crumble and cathedrals flatten in my heart
