Oh, Eleanor
Were you just terrified?

So come on now, Eleanor
I swear to God you wanted more

Didn't you say life was boring?
Didn't you used to sing glory?

You just stood there, Eleanor
D
What's next, not the sound of war
The glory you once say for
A
Come on, oh, Eleanor
A
What were you waiting for?
