Queen of Hearts |
Sun rises above the factory but the rays don’t make it to the street. |
Through the gates come the employees, beaten down and dragging their feet. |
A group of lefties hand out pamphlets to the workers coming in. |
For two people on the pavement life will never be the same again. |
When she placed it in his hand, |
People must have seen the sparks. |
Neither understands what just happened to their hearts. |
Another morning in this place has ripped me out of my dream. |
Realizing life’s a waste as the whistle lets off steam. |
One thing about it all is nothing’s ever going to change. |
It’s like our progress has just stalled and everyday is the same. |
She placed it in my hand. |
Co-workers must have seen the sparks. |
I couldn’t understand what just happened to my heart. |
Hello, my name is David, your name is Veronica, |
Let’s be together, let’s fall in love. |
Hello, my name is David, your name is Veronica — |
Let’s be together, until the stars go out. |
All we need is for something to give, |
The dam bursts open, we suddenly live. |
The boot off my throat, life is returning, |
The boot off my throat, let’s all emote. |
Dawn breaks across this town and a new dawn breaks for me. |
I couldn’t take the pains of the underclass, |
Trying to smile through gritted teeth. |
We must now all join up and throw off the shackles of shame. |
United we can’t be defeated, they shall hear us proclaim. |
I placed it in his hand. |
Comrades must have seen the sparks. |
I couldn’t understand what happened to my heart. |
Hello, your name is David, I am Veronica, |
Let’s be together, until the water swallows us. |
Hello, you must be David, I am Veronica — |
Let’s be together, until we’re all finally crushed. |
All we need is for something to give, |
The dam bursts open, we suddenly live. |
The boot off my throat, life is returning, |
The boot off my throat, let’s all emote. |
