I was just a child when they brought me to this place

Uther's bastard daughter with my mother's gentle face

They called it royal duty, honor, called it right

But I was just a girl who cried alone at night

Arthur, golden Arthur, with his sword of destiny

Never knew his sister shared his blood, his legacy

While he learned of kingdoms, I learned magic in the shade

Every spell a secret that I carefully had made

They sing of noble Arthur, king of legend, king of light

But they never sing of Morgana, hidden deep from mortal sight

I loved him like a brother before I knew the truth

Now I'm the villain in the story of his youth

Oh, Camelot, Camelot, what have you made of me?

The witch, the dark enchantress, when I longed to just be free

Merlin saw my power and he trembled at my name

Said I'd bring destruction, said I'd set the world aflame

But all I ever wanted was to stand beside the throne

Not as Arthur's enemy, but as blood of his own

Guinevere the golden queen, she had his heart complete

While I had all his secrets buried underneath my feet

They sing of noble Arthur, king of legend, king of light

But they never sing of Morgana, hidden deep from mortal sight

I loved him like a brother before I knew the truth

Now I'm the villain in the story of his youth

Oh, Camelot, Camelot, what have you made of me?

The witch, the dark enchantress, when I longed to just be free

Watch the kingdom crumble, watch the Round Table fall

I didn't want to cause it, but they gave me no choice at all

When family becomes strangers and secrets turn to lies

Even magic cannot mend what royal blood denies

Now they tell the story of the king who lived and died

But they paint me as the darkness standing by his side

I was never just the villain, I was daughter, I was kin

I was the one who loved him before the end began

They sing of noble Arthur, king of legend, king of light

But they never sing of Morgana, who loved him despite the night

I was sister, I was daughter, I was magic, I was true

But history only remembers what they want it to

Oh, Camelot, Camelot, you made a villain out of me

In the mists of Avalon, where the ancient magic sleeps

I remember Arthur's laughter before the kingdom weeps
