My body in a coffin, A coffin made of glass, You didn't know I'd see it all, I watched the hours pass.
So, so cold, I waited, Just waited for your kiss, A kiss to return life to me: What anyone would miss.
I waited but you didn't come, I grew so cold and tired, Left inside that see-through cage, For all, to be admired.
They'd stop and try to wake me, A thousand lips - not yours, And still I waited patiently, To feel your soft contours.
You left me in that place so long, I forgot just how to feel, I finally forgot myself, Brought my thoughts to heel.
Who was I to think you'd come? To think you'd rescue me? I was Snow White in a case, That's all I'd ever be.
