queen of spades

You're here at my doorstep, waiting..

It's just like any visitor

You speak in a foreign language

I could not be more mistaken

 

Yea, the peace of mind

That I leave behind

Once you enter..

All these games you play

Then you place the spade

 

We used to have the same tongue

Our stars were a month apart

But now..

You're just the remains of my Capulet

'Your Empress' engraved on the amulet

 

I'm left with a hole in my chest

You created the one thing you hate

Thus everything I've ever sent

You lit them to stoke up your flames!

 

Yea, the peace of mind

That I leave behind

Once you enter..

All these games you play

Then you place your spade

 

Now you wonder aloud

-

How my heart's of stone

I drunk up your froth of snakes

Venom's got me cold

 

And you broke my mirror.

 

This thick skin of mine, now it's just a shell

How something so passionate could easily break

I wonder aloud, what would happen if

If I hadn't met a queen of spades.
