Speech with Olivia

“Shiver” by Coldplay

OLIVIA Hast thou forgot thyself? is it so long? Call forth the holy father. DUKE ORSINO Come, away! OLIVIA Whither, my lord? Cesario, husband, stay. DUKE ORSINO Husband! OLIVIA Ay, husband: can he that deny? DUKE ORSINO Her husband, sirrah! VIOLA No, my lord, not I. OLIVIA Alas, it is the baseness of thy fear That makes thee strangle thy propriety: Fear not, Cesario; take thy fortunes up; Be that thou know'st thou art, and then thou art As great as that thou fear'st.

So I look in your direction, But you pay me no attention, do you? I know you don't listen to me. 'cause you say you see straight through me, don't you? And on and on from the moment I wake, To the moment I sleep, I'll be there by your side, Just you try and stop me, I'll be waiting in line, Just to see if you care. Did you want me to change? Well I changed for good And I want you to know. That you'll always get your way I wanted to say, I'll always be waiting for you, So you know how much I need you, But you never even see me, do you? And is this my final chance of getting you? And on and on from the moment I wake, To the moment I sleep, I'll be there by your side, Just you try and stop me, I'll be waiting in line, Just to see if you care.

I chose this song because the lyrics matched up well with Olivia's life. The song talks about liking someone and them not paying any attention back to you. This is similar to Olivia's situation with Sebastian; She likes him but he doesn't give her any attention in return. 

So I look in your direction,

But you pay me no attention, do you?

Hast thou forgot thyself? is it so long?

I know you don't listen to me.

'cause you say you see straight through me, don't you?

Ay, husband: can he that deny?

I'll always be waiting for you,

So you know how much I need you,

Alas, it is the baseness of thy fear

That makes thee strangle thy propriety:

Fear not, Cesario; take thy fortunes up;

Be that thou know'st thou art, and then thou art

As great as that thou fear'st.
