Havisham from Expectations by Box of Books

Tracklist

8.	Havisham	6:06

Lyrics

This was never about her
This was always about you
The pain endured through torture
A girl trained to destroy you
Old white dress, an untrue ring
You gave Estella the chance
To treat him to an untrue fling

Which ending will this one be?
Do you think he you'll let him free
Havisham, what's wrong with you

You can't teach an old book new tricks
No matter how hard you try
She just wants to get her fix
Just to watch you crumble down and cry

Is this the timeless classic that Estella didn't read?
It sure feels like a repeat of some Dickens history

Pick up a book
Learn to read
That's what set me free
That's what Ms. Havisham expected of me
