Elphaba's Survival
Elphaba

Verse 1:
The water poured down, but I never did melt
They saw what they wanted, my fate wrongly dealt
The Wizard's illusions, the tricks of his trade
In that spellbinding moment, my escape was made

Verse 2:
Through shadows I traveled, in darkness I stayed
My magic a secret, my debts yet unpaid
The people were blinded, by tales that were spun
But I lived in their midst, now the story's begun

Hook:
I survived, oh yes, I survived
In the shadows I thrived, oh how I survived

Pre-Chorus:
A cauldron of potions, a mind ever keen
The truth now unfolds, there's more to be seen

Verse 3:
Years in the silence, the whispers, the lies
The Wizard's agenda, his grand alibis
But I learned to conjure, to twist and to weave
In the hidden recesses, my tricks up my sleeve

Verse 4:
Invisible cloaks and enchantments so grand
The power within me, yet to understand
A life in the shadows, a mask I have worn
The story continues, a tale to adorn

Hook:
I survived, oh yes, I survived
In the shadows I thrived, oh how I survived

Bridge:
And now as I stand, with the truth to reveal
The legend of melting, the myth they conceal

Verse 5:
The green-skinned outcast, the misunderstood soul
From the ashes I rose, in the dark, I made whole
Let them tell the stories, let them sing their songs
But I write the verses where I belong

Hook:
I survived, oh yes, I survived
In the shadows I thrived, oh how I survived

Outro:
So here's to the whispers, the magic unseen
The tale of my survival, defying the mean
