Song Lyrics

Silent as first snow
Hot like breath in ice cold
Hunger stained on her lips
She winds it in like snake hips

And I'm powerless once I fall
I'm caught wounded in a snare
Every twist a road that don't exist
Every turn leads me back to her

Even when she glows she never throws a shadow
She's looking like she's not all there
Looking like a nightmare
And then I know, I know
She's never gonna let go
She's making it a nightmare
Looking like a nightmare

Here, she's a queen
She's on the corner of every street

Her smile, like a wall's crooked crack
In childhood homes, locked doors unlatched
I'd follow her down the darkest path
I'm a door mouse and she's the cat

And I'm powerless once I fall
I'm caught wounded in a snare
Every twist a road that don't exist
Every turn leads me back to her

Even when she glows she never throws a shadow
She's looking like she's not all there
Looking like a nightmare
And then I know, I know
She's never gonna let go
She's making it a nightmare
Looking like a nightmare

She roars like a lioness
And suddenly I'm in my Sunday dress
On a platform, train to somewhere I feel like I've been
But they say to remember it's just a dream

Here she's a queen, she's on the corner of every street
Looking like a nightmare
Here she's a queen, she's on the corner of every street
Looking like a nightmare
Here she's a queen, she's on the corner of every street
Looking like a nightmare
Here she's a queen, she's on the corner of every street
Looking like a nightmare
Here she's a queen, she's on the corner of every street
Looking like a nightmare
