What If (Celtic Mix) Lyrics


Here you sit on your high-backed chair
Wonder how the view is from there
I wouldn't know 'cause I like to sit
Upon the floor, yeah upon the floorIf you like we could play a game
Let's pretend that we are the same
But you will have to look much closer
Than you do, closer than you doAnd I'm far too tired to stay here anymore
And I don't care what you think anyway
'Cause I think you were wrong about me
Yeah what if you were, what if you wereAnd what if I'm a snowstorm burning
What if I'm a world unturning
What if I'm an ocean
Far too shallow, much too deepWhat if I'm the kindest demon
Something you may not believe in
What if I'm a siren
Singing gentlemen to sleepI know you've got it figured out
Tell me what I am all about
And I just might learn a thing or two

Hundred about you, maybe about youI'm the end of your telescope
I don't change just to suit your vision
'Cause I am bound by a fraying rope
Around my hands, tied around my handsAnd you close your eyes
When I say I'm breaking free
And put your hands over both your ears
Because you cannot stand to believe I'm not
The perfect girl you thought
Well what have I got to loseAnd what if I'm a weeping willow
Laughing tears upon my pillow
What if I'm a socialite
Who wants to be aloneWhat if I'm a toothless leopard
What if I'm a sheepless shepherd
What if I'm an angel
Without wings to take me homeYou don't know me
Never will, never will
I'm outside your picture frame
And the glass is breaking nowYou can't see me
Never will, never will
If you're never gonna seeWhat if I'm a crowded desert
Too much pain with little pleasure
What if I'm the nicest place
You never want to goWhat if I don't know who I am
Will that keep us both from trying
To find out and when you have
Be sure to let me knowWhat if I'm a snowstorm burning
What if I'm a world unturning
What if I'm an ocean
Far too shallow, much too deepWhat if I'm the kindest demon
Something you may not believe in
What if I'm a siren
Singing gentlemen to sleepSleep
Sleep

Emilie Autumn Liddell (born on September 22, 1979), better known by her stage name Emilie Autumn, is an American singer-songwriter, poet, and violinist. Autumn draws influence for her music—the style of which she has alternatively labeled as "Victoriandustrial" and glam rock—from plays, novels, and history, particularly the Victorian era. Performing with her all-female backing band The Bloody Crumpets, Autumn incorporates elements of classical music, cabaret, electronica, and glam rock with theatrics, and burlesque.

Growing up in Malibu, California, she began learning the violin at the age of four and left regular school five years later with the goal of becoming a world-class violinist; she practiced eight or nine hours a day and read a wide range of literature. Progressing to writing her own music, she studied under various teachers and went to Indiana University, which she left over issues regarding the relationship between classical music and the appearance of the performer. Through her own independent label Traitor Records, Autumn debuted with her classical album On a Day: Music for Violin & Continuo, followed by the release in 2003 of her album Enchant.

She appeared in singer Courtney Love's backing band on her 2004 America's Sweetheart tour and returned to Europe. She released the 2006 album Opheliac with the German label Trisol Music Group. In 2007, she released Laced/Unlaced; the re-release of On a Day... appeared as Laced with songs on the electric violin as Unlaced. She later left Trisol to join New York-based The End Records in 2009 and release Opheliac in the United States, where previously it had only been available as an import. Currently she is on tour to promote her newest album Fight Like A Girl. She played the role of Painted Doll in Darren Lynn Bousman's 2012 film The Devil's Carnival.
