EOWYN

WITH HIS WORDS
HE SAYS YOU ARE JUST A WOMAN
EVEN HIS EYES,
SAY YOUR WORLD IS IN THIS HALL
ALL MY LIFE
I HAVE LONGED TO SEE AN OMEN
THAT SAYS I CAN BE MORE
THAN IVE BEEN BEFORE
IF IM LESS I AM NOTHING AT ALL

WITH HIS WORDS
HE-SAYS YOUR LIFES ALREADY CHOSEN
EVEN HIS EYES
SAY THAT YOU MUST WAIT YOUR TURN
ALL MY LIFE
IS A MOMENT THATS BEEN FROZEN
WHERE TOMORROWS NEVER COME
WITH THAT SHARP EXCITING HUM
BEING MORE IS A RIGHT I HAVE EARNED

WHY MUST I LIVE MY LIFE IN A CAGE,
FILLED WITH A LONGING? FEELING THE RAGE
THAT ILL ONLY BE FREE, I CAN LET THE HOUSE BURN
WHEN MEN GO TO WARS FROM WHICH THEY WONT RETURN
WHEN ALL THE GLORY IS WON,
WILL ANYONE KNOW ALL I HAVE DONE?

WITH HIS WORDS,
HE SAYS THERE IS NO PLACE BESIDE ME
EVEN HIS EYES
SAY YOU MUST WALK A STEP BEHIND
ALL MY LIFE
IVE NEVER ASKED A MAN TO GUIDE ME
IF HED JUST REACH OUT HIS HAND,
TOGETHER WE WOULD STAND
TO MEET BRAVELY WHATEVER WE FIND

BUT I CANNOT LIVE ON WISHES AND DREAMS
I MUST LIVE OUT IN THE WORLD
FIGHTING FOR GLORY COUNTERING SCHEMES
WITH MY OWN BANNER UNFURLED!

IN THIS WORLD
WHY MUST MY LIFE BE JUST A SHADOW
NEATH THESE SKIES
WHERE SUN SHINES BRIGHT BUT DOES NOT WARM?
IF MY LIFE
IS ACCEPTING WHAT I HAD, THOUGH
IT WAS NOT TOO LATE CHANGE IT,
RE-ASSESS AND RE-ARRANGE IT
