Emilie Autumn - Epilogue: What If Lyrics

Here you sit on your high-backed chair 
Wonder how the view is from there 
I wouldn't know 'cause I like to sit 
Upon the floor, yeah upon the floor 
If you like we could play a game 
Let's pretend that we are the same 
But you will have to look much closer 
Than you do, closer than you do 

And I'm far too tired to stay here anymore 
And I don't care what you think anyway 
'Cause I think you were wrong about me 
Yeah what if you were, what if you were 

And what if I'm a snowstorm burning 
What if I'm a world unturning 
What if I'm an ocean, far too shallow, much too deep 
What if I'm the kindest demon 
Something you may not believe in 
What if I'm a siren singing gentlemen to sleep 

I know you've got it figured out 
Tell me what I am all about 
And I just might learn a thing or two 
Hundred about you, maybe about you 
I'm the end of your telescope 
I don't change just to suit your vision 
'Cause I am bound by a fraying rope 
Around my hands, tied around my hands 

And you close your eyes when I say I'm breaking free 
And put your hands over both your ears 
Because you cannot stand to believe I'm not 
The perfect girl you thought 
Well what have I got to lose 

And what if I'm a weeping willow 
Laughing tears upon my pillow 
What if I'm a socialite who wants to be alone 
What if I'm a toothless leopard 
What if I'm a sheepless shepherd 
What if I'm an angel without wings to take me home 

You don't know me 
Never will, never will 
I'm outside your picture frame 
And the glass is breaking now 
You can't see me 
Never will, never will 
If you're never gonna see 

What if I'm a crowded desert 
Too much pain with little pleasure 
What if I'm the nicest place you never want to go 
What if I don't know who I am 
Will that keep us both from trying 
To find out and when you have 
Be sure to let me know 

What if I'm a snowstorm burning 
What if I'm a world unturning 
What if I'm an ocean, far too shallow, much too deep 
What if I'm the kindest demon 
Something you may not believe in 
What if I'm a siren singing gentlemen to sleep 
Sleep... 
Sleep...
