GOTHIC QUEEN

COME COVER ME WITH COMFORT AND KEEP WATCH WHEN I SLEEP
DON’T ASK ME FOR MY CAUSES, STILL WATERS RUN DEEP
THIS OVERWHELMING SADNESS AND THIS EVERLASTING HARM
WON’T HAVE A CHANCE TO CATCH ME AS I REST IN YOUR ARMS

MY GOTHIC QUEEN SHE SAID
KILL ME WITH LOVE
MY GOTHIC QUEEN SHE SAID
I WON’T SURVIVE THIS NIGHT
BEFORE THE BREAK OF DAY
FILL ME WITH LOVE
MY GOTHIC QUEEN SHE SAID
LOVE ME TILL I DIE

LEAD ME INTO TEMPTATION, I DIDN’T COME TO RESIST
GIVE HEALING FOR THIS BLEEDING HEART, I WANT IT LIKE THIS
THIS OVERWHELMING TORTURE AND THIS EVERLASTING FEAR
WON’T HAVE THE CHANCE TO BREAK ME ‚CAUSE I’M STRONG WHEN I’M HERE

MY GOTHIC QUEEN SHE SAID
KILL ME WITH LOVE
MY GOTHIC QUEEN SHE SAID
I WON’T SURVIVE THIS NIGHT
BEFORE THE BREAK OF DAY
FILL ME WITH LOVE
MY GOTHIC QUEEN SHE SAID
LOVE ME TILL I DIE

GIVE HEALING FOR THIS BLEEDING HEART
GIVE HEALING FOR THIS BLEEDING HEART OF MINE
GIVE HEALING FOR THIS BLEEDING HEART
GIVE HEALING FOR THIS HEART YOU BROKE TONIGHT
GIVE HEALING FOR THIS BLEEDING HEART
I LOVE YOU WAS THE VERY LAST SHE SAID

BEFORE THE BREAK OF DAY
FILL ME WITH LOVE
MY GOTHIC QUEEN SHE SAID
LOVE ME TILL I DIE

PAIN

PAIN
PAIN
PAIN
PAIN
PAIN

I AM BEGGING, I AM BEGGING FOR PROTECTION
I AM PRAYING BUT I FIND NO QUARTER HERE
I’M NOT READY YET I’M CONFUSED AND SO UNHAPPY
AND I’M LONESOME THOUGH YOU SAID I WOULDN’T MY DEAR

TIME FOR REFLECTION
TAKE A GLOOMY VIEW OF LIFE
TIME FOR PERFECTION
AND YOU TALK THINGS TO DEATH BUT YOU SPEAK WITHOUT SAYING WHY

PAIN
IN MY BOND OF LOVE
PAIN
WHAT YOU’RE DREAMING OF
PAIN
BUT YOU’RE NEVER SATISFIED
ALL YOU WANT IS
PAIN
BELOVED ENEMY
PAIN
TO THE HIGH DEGREE
PAIN
IS THAT ALL YOU GIVE TONIGHT?

I AM CRYING, I AM CRYING FOR GOOD REASONS
I AM LISTENING BUT I ONLY HEAR A TIRADE
IT’S NOT OVER YET SO IT STILL DEMANDS AN ANSWER
I’LL BE BURNING BECAUSE YOUR FIEND IS HERE TO STAY

TIME FOR REFLECTION
TAKE A GLOOMY VIEW OF LIFE
TIME FOR PERFECTION
AND YOU TALK THINGS TO DEATH BUT YOU SPEAK WITHOUT SAYING WHY

PAIN
IN MY BOND OF LOVE
PAIN
WHAT YOU’RE DREAMING OF
PAIN
BUT YOU’RE NEVER SATISFIED
ALL YOU WANT IS
PAIN
BELOVED ENEMY
PAIN
TO THE HIGH DEGREE
PAIN
IS THAT ALL YOU GIVE TONIGHT?

ALL YOU WANT IS
ALL YOU GIVE IS
ALL I FEEL IS
PAIN

[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

PAIN
IN MY BOND OF LOVE

BUT YOU’RE NEVER SATISFIED
ALL I FEEL IS

IS THAT ALL YOU GIVE TONIGHT?
ALL YOU WANT IS
PAIN

ALL YOU WANT IS
PAIN

IF I FAIL

THE SEA IS ROUGH, THE SPINDRIFT COLD, THE BRIDGE IS UNDER FIRE
THE MASTER LEFT THE SINKING SHIP AS WAVES WERE RISING HIGHER
UNBAPTIZED, UNCONVERTED
JUST A HENCHMAN ON THE VERGE
OF THROWING HIGH AIMS OVERBOARD TO FEED THE SURGE

BUT IF I FAIL OR IF I FALL
I’LL BE AID AND CONSOLATION
IF I RANGE OR IF I CRAWL
I WILL SHELTER YOU MY LOVE
IF I STARVE OR IF I SEAR
I’LL BE FAITH AND INSPIRATION
RAISE MY HOPE AND EASE THE FEAR
I’LL BE THERE TO BACK YOU UP

THE SAND LIKE GLOW, THE DESERT WIDE, THE SUN TRUNCATED BRAINS
THE WELL DRIED UP AND THOUGHTS ARE LIKE A CARAVAN IN CHAINS
BEDRAGGLED AND AHUNGERED
JUST A TRAVELER IN SEARCH
OF CONFIDENCE AND DEVOTION BEFORE IT BURNS

[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

A LIGHTNING STRIKE ON KILLING FIELDS, THE SOIL WAS SEWED WITH BLOOD
A DEAFENING BURST, THE SMELL OF DEATH AND FACES BLURRED WITH MUD
INGENUOUS, YEAH, BLAMELESS
A PEACE SEEKER IN THE JAM
BUT I’M STUCK IN HERE TILL JUDGMENT DAY ON RUINED LAND

IF I FAIL OR IF I FALL
IF I RANGE OR IF I CRAWL
YEAH, IF I STARVE OR IF I SEAR
OHH-WHOW, RAISE MY HOPE AND EASE THE FEAR
