What Happened, Part 1
• Written by Ghouligan
Ghouligan's Notes
This song is about the death of Edgar Allan Poe. I always wanted to know how he died. I'm going to make a Part 2 of this song for Vincent Van Gogh also. I wanted to know how they both died.
//Chorus//
I always wanted to know
What happened to you, Edgar Allan Poe
What led to your demise
Who did this to you
A person in a disguise
A young man who lead an estranged life
What happened to you
I always wanted to know
What happened to you, Edgar Allan Poe
What led to your demise
Who did this to you
A person in a disguise
A young man who lead an estranged life
What happened to you
//Verse 1//
Edgar Poe was a man who was born on January 19, 1809 in Massachusetts
When he was in college, he had made terrible bets
In 1833, he married his 13 year old cousin
How many books he wrote? Over a dozen
His mother died when he was 2 years old
He didn't live a life of gold
He was very successful in his writings
He didn't know a lot of things
It was emotions his stories brings
He lived a life of poverty not having many earnings
I want to get to the bottom of his death
When it came to him, there was not a lot of progress
Many people thought his life is a huge mess
Poe, you take your rest
I heard you weren't much of a drinker
Who killed you, I can't point a finger
I am here to tell your story and to paint a picture
//Chorus//
I always wanted to know
What happened to you, Edgar Allan Poe
What led to your demise
Who did this to you
A person in a disguise
A young man who lead an estranged life
What happened to you
I always wanted to know
What happened to you, Edgar Allan Poe
What led to your demise
Who did this to you
A person in a disguise
A young man who lead an estranged life
What happened to you
//Verse 2//
This man leads a great legacy
I consider this to be interesting
His stories gives me certain emotions
His stories are like potions
Your story has been spoken
I understand you Poe
He died on October 3, 1849
Nobody knows how
Poe, it's your time to shine
This is a story everyone should know
A valuable man who wanted his story to be told
Finding an answer to his problem is definitely unknown
His story goes down in English literature history
As for what truly happened to this poet, till this day it still remains a mystery
With no more information, this story hasn't evolved
That's why the case of Edgar All Poe remains unsolved
//Chorus//
I always wanted to know
What happened to you, Edgar Allan Poe
What led to your demise
Who did this to you
A person in a disguise
A young man who lead an estranged life
What happened to you
I always wanted to know
What happened to you, Edgar Allan Poe
What led to your demise
Who did this to you
A person in a disguise
A young man who lead an estranged life
What happened to you
