The Anti-Queens

Cowards In The Castle

The Anti-Queens


The castle is where you hide
To fill the well with blood
Sell my soul and I’ll be on my way
The devil calls it fool’s play
Hearts carved out in a line
In the streets as a warning sign
Before you ask me if I can swim
You’ve already pushed me in.

Her plague sticks to you and seeps into your skin
Hide your piety or she’ll burn you from within
Heresy insanity was her treacherous sin
1553 was the only day she grinned.

Too afraid to face the mirror
A new wrinkle will tell it’s toll
Screams in the night that we all fear
From every soul she’s ever sold.

Before you ask me if I can swim
Her plague sticks to you and seeps into your skin
Hide your piety or she’ll burn you from within
Heresy insanity was her treacherous sin
1553 was the only day she grinned

Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary,
Bloody Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary Mary,
Bloody Mary, Bloody Bloody Mary
I smell smoke
