She's a Nightmare

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 lookin' like a she's not all there (Lookin' like a nightmare)

And then I know, I know, she's never gonna let go

She's makin' it a nightmare (Lookin' like a nightmare)

Here, she's a queen

She's on the corner of every street

Her smile, like a wall 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 lookin' like a she's not all there (Lookin' like a nightmare)

And then I know, I know, she's never gonna let go

She's makin' it a nightmare (Lookin' 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 (Lookin' like a nightmare)

Here, she's a queen

She's on the corner of every street (Lookin' like a nightmare)

Here, she's a queen

She's on the corner of every street (Lookin' like a nightmare)

Here, she's a queen

She's on the corner of every street (Lookin' like a nightmare)

Here, she's a queen

She's on the corner of every street (Lookin' like a nightmare)

Here, she's a queen

She's on the corner of every street
