The Prisoner to His Own Desires by RandomName Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 1469

Oh dear Hamlet how far have your desires blinded you from seeing clear

You seemed like a mad dog seeking only revenge

You say appearance is what you disdain but you were its volunteer

Informed about the murder of your father you were surely to avenge

Question is, was this truly necessary?

Indeed a murder of your loved one will throw you in a despair that’s bottomless

But leading all these people to their graves was unnecessary

Nevertheless you let your desires enslave you and chased Claudius

Your foolishness also dug your own grave

Although observing your final words in the play you seemed content with it

Enduring the pain you had for so long that death became what you crave
Pleased with the result your soul was slowly taken by death bit by bit

In the end you followed your father and what’s done is done

And as the saying goes like father like son
