All the faces
All the voices blur
Change to one face
Change to one voice
She was bored. Bored to tears. She'd always hated these "royal" functions. She'd much rather be out adventuring. A vision of the last time she saw him came into her mind, and she shook her head to clear the image. Looking around, she spotted her father and made an excuse to go up to her room.
Prepare yourself for bed
The light seems bright
And glares on white walls
All the sounds of charlotte sometimes
Into the night
With charlotte sometimes
She looked around at her room and sighed softly and put on her nightdress. She slid into her bed and layed there staring at the ceiling waiting for sleep to come.
Night after night she lay alone in bed
Her eyes so open to the dark
The streets all looked so strange
They seemed so far away
But charlotte sometimes did not cry
She was dreaming. Dreaming that she was back at the party. The people all came to see her, to see the princess that would never marry. She had refused to even hear proposals and although her father tried, she would not marry. She would rather die than marry someone she didn't love.
The people seemed so close
Playing expressionless games
The people seemed so close
So close
So many
Other names
She fled the ballroom, not wanting their pityfilled glances. As she sat in the garden she watched the party going on still without her.
Sometimes i'm dreaming
Where all the other people dance
Sometimes i'm dreaming
Charlotte sometimes
Sometimes i'm dreaming
Expressionless the trance
Sometimes i'm dreaming
So many different names
She was glad to be out of there, but sad at the same time. Glad to be away from the whispers, the pitifull glances. Sad for the fact that she would never enjoy the parties again.
Sometimes i'm dreaming
The sounds all stay the same
Sometimes i'm dreaming
She hopes to open shadowed eyes
On a different world
Come to me
Scared princess
Charlotte sometimes
Being alone forever scared her. She didn't want to be alone, but that's what happens when you fall in love with someone who can't or won't return it.
On that bleak track
(See the sun is gone again)
The tears were pouring down her face
She was crying and crying for a girl
Who died so many years before
Her thoughts turned to the girl she was before all those years ago. She was young then, niave in her view of "justice". All she wanted was for people to be happy. She chocked on her tears, as thoughts of that time came back to her in a flood.
Sometimes i dream
Where all the people dance
Sometimes i dream
Charlotte sometimes
Sometimes i dream
The sounds all stay the same
Sometimes i'm dreaming
There are so many different names
Sometimes i dream
Sometimes i dream
She would give anything to be back there, to redo things over again. She'd do things the same, but maybe, she'd appreciate the time she had with her friends more.
Charlotte sometimes crying for herself
Charlotte sometimes dreams a wall around herself
But it's always with love
With so much love it looks like
Everything else
Of charlotte sometimes
With a sigh she wiped the tears from her cheaks and silently rebuilt the walls around her heart. She knew she wouldn't love again, as surely as she knew he'd never come for her.
So far away
Glass sealed and pretty
Charlotte sometimes
She awoke, hot tears still running down her cheeks, her heart still aching with the memories, and prepared to start yet another day as the person that she had become.
