I was a beautiful boy
A gorgeous girl
I was the Queen of the wolves
And the king of the birds
The witches they loved me
The hunters they hunt me
And my life was the shortest way around
I was a head on two legs
The shadow of a swan
A reflection of dread
A bitter crusade
The cats showed me around
The birds led me the way
And my life was the shortest way around
That's so much more
Than I am today
My back against the wall
A bubble on my neck
My flesh an empty shell
My mind stuck in a trap
The cats they found their way
But I just went astray
And the birds they drowned in sound
I'm so much more
Than this today
