-- Disclaimer: I don't own the play Hamlet, that belongs solely to Shakspeare --
-- Summary: I had to write a soliloquy for my Brit Lit class and decided Ophelia would be easy to do so this is a song/soliloquy by her about all the corruption and loss she has suffered.
--------------------------------------------------
Oh misery mine
Where love hath failed
And yours with loyalties too
When treacherous sins
O'ertake our lives
And death shall take us all soon
The flowers bloom and die in time
As all us do on earth
Though die we do all the sooner, it seems
Since we die from the day of our birth
Oh gone be the two
So dear to mine heart
And fading be love still alive
Through madness and murder
Be mine own heart torn
As all hearts shall break o'er time
The treason of kings
Who claim speak so true
Shall fall all to ruin this year
And those who have souls
Still untainted with cold
Shall find they cannot shed a tear
So off with I to the wild beyond
Where lies and treason live not
The unknown paradise beyond bright light
Is soon what by all shall be sought
The flowers wilt and die around
As sorrow they show for all you
You who have shown where hearts may lie
To all, my farewell, adieu
