"Ophelia" as written by and David/pearce Usher....
Morning came to pieces without offering is it still real
Precious little pistol beaten senseless till she can't feel
Still the moment's passing by
It's only the time that we could never stop
Early morning winter came been to close to be so close again
I never meant to be so cold
It's only the time that we could never stop
Still the moment's passing by
I'm letting Ophelia die
Daisy dusted lightly so politely till she can't see
Itchy little trigger will deliver what you can't be
Still the moment's passing by
It's only the time that we could never stop
Early morning winter came been to close to be so close again
I never meant to be so cold
It's only the time that we could never stop
Still the moment's passing by
I'm letting Ophelia die
I'm letting Ophelia die
There is another verse at the end, but for the life of me I don't know what he is saying.
Precious little pistol beaten senseless till she can't feel
Still the moment's passing by
It's only the time that we could never stop
Early morning winter came been to close to be so close again
I never meant to be so cold
It's only the time that we could never stop
Still the moment's passing by
I'm letting Ophelia die
Daisy dusted lightly so politely till she can't see
Itchy little trigger will deliver what you can't be
Still the moment's passing by
It's only the time that we could never stop
Early morning winter came been to close to be so close again
I never meant to be so cold
It's only the time that we could never stop
Still the moment's passing by
I'm letting Ophelia die
I'm letting Ophelia die
There is another verse at the end, but for the life of me I don't know what he is saying.

The song is obviously inspired by Hamlet. I have a feeling that, if this song can actually be interpreted and isn't just something that David Usher thought sounded neat, that perhaps the song is from the perspective of Gertrude, who watches Ophelia drown herself. Or perhaps the chorus is from Ophelia's perspective, making reference to the fact that the play [well, at least at the time Ophelia dies] is set in winter.
"There's a daisy: I would give you
some violets, but they withered all when my father
died"
