It Was Her House That Killed Nessarose
Unveiling Deceit: Nessarose's Tragic Tale Through Hannah Fury's Melody
Lyrics
She might fool them but she don't fool me
She may deceive others, but she doesn't deceive me.
She talks much too earnestly
She speaks with excessive seriousness or sincerity.
And when Glinda gave her the shoes
When Glinda gave her the shoes (referring to the character's possession of magical shoes).
I had nothing else to lose
The speaker had nothing more to lose at that point.
And I asked her to take my hand
The speaker requested her to hold their hand.
I asked her to please understand
The speaker pleaded for her understanding.
They love her so 'cause she's so sticky sweet
Others admire her because she's overly charming, but the speaker doubts her honesty.
But she just doesn't seem honest to me
The speaker feels she lacks honesty.
And when Glinda asked me to choose
When Glinda asked the speaker to make a choice.
Well, I had nothing much else to lose
The speaker had very little else to lose at that moment.
And I asked her to take my hand
The speaker again requested her to hold their hand and asked about their former friendship.
I asked her who once was my friend, I thought, 'til the end
The speaker reflects on their past friendship, feeling betrayed.
And I thought I had the secret to life
The speaker once believed they knew the secret to life.
I don't, do I?
The speaker realizes they actually don't possess the secret to life.
Do I?
Questioning oneself about not knowing the secret to life.
And I thought that I had the secret to life
The speaker previously thought they understood the secret to life.
But I don't, do I?
Realizing that they indeed do not know the secret to life.
I follow her down the Yellow Brick Road
The speaker follows her down the Yellow Brick Road (a reference to the path to the Emerald City in "The Wizard of Oz").
Chasing her now, for revenge, I suppose
The speaker pursues her now, possibly seeking revenge.
She causes destruction wherever she goes
She leaves chaos or destruction wherever she goes.
It was her house that killed Nessarose
The house belonging to 'her' caused the death of Nessarose (a character from "The Wizard of Oz").
It was her house that killed Nessarose
Reiteration that 'her' house caused Nessarose's death.
That's just the way life goes
Reflecting on the inevitability of life's circumstances.
