Sufjan Stevens & Angelo De Augustine
Lady Macbeth in Chains
[Verse 1]
Open on Broadway, you're a star
Just an opportunist at heart
Evil hid in glitz and glamour
Drunk like a potion harvester

[Pre-Chorus]
All About Eve, cat up a tree
Margo Channing, listen to me
Don't believe what she says
When she sleeps in your head

[Chorus]
Now the two allegories of pity and terror
One for the money, for trial and error
Telling the story, anointing its pleasure
Lady Macbeth in chains

[Verse 2]
Once in a lifetime you're a star
A circus of light falling apart
Just as the flame is on the reservoir
The darkness arises so much brighter

[Pre-Chorus]
All About Evе, queen tragedy
All that you need is a throne to recеive
Now go sleep in the bed
That you made while she bled from her open wounds
[Chorus]
Two categories tell two different stories
One for ambition and one full of glory
Backstabbing feeds on its own inventory
Lady Macbeth in chains
Lady Macbeth in chains
