Queen Of Pain

Alkaline Trio · Remains [2007]

There's a fire forming

Not too far from here

Out on the East Coast, maybe

It resides in you, my dear



We're worn out on all courtesy

We've made our curtain calls

Like vampire bats deprived of blood

Into the New York City night we crawl



And you've got a funny way of showing off

Your bathroom surgery

You said you were just cooling down

From plans of leaving me



There's something I should tell you,

For we may not have much time

I've never met arms like yours



And the stars at night are big and bright

Deep in your eyes Ms. Vincent

You told me once I made you smile,

We both know damn well I didn't

I'm not much of a jester,

But I'd test poisoned food for you,

Your majesty, your royal blue

I'm loyal to my Queen of Pain



There's a hard rain falling,

Flooding your attic, it's clear

It can't put out the fire

That resides in you, my dear



There's something I should tell you,

For we may not have much time

I've never seen scars like yours



And the stars at night are big and bright

Deep in your eyes Ms. Vincent

You told me once I made you smile,

We both know damn well I didn't

I'm not much of a jester,

But I'd test poisoned food for you,

Your majesty, your royal blue

I'm loyal to my Queen of Pain



And the stars at night are big and bright

Deep in your eyes Ms. Vincent

You told me once I made you smile,

We both know damn well I didn't

I'm not much of a jester,

But I'd test poisoned food for you,

Your majesty, your royal blue

I'm loyal to my Queen of Pain
