Midnight Movie Queen

The theater is empty, dust dancing in the beam
Screen flickers like neon, ripping through the seam
She don't walk on pavement, she lives in the static
Between the black and white, she's automatic
Lipstick the color of a fresh crime scene
Looking for an exit? Don't be naive, machine!


She cuts the film reel with a stiletto heel
Thought it was a fairy tale? You don't know the deal!


Припев
Queen of the Midnight Cinema!
Dark in her eyes, drinking down the drama
She kisses like a gunshot, straight to the brain
Brakes are cut, she's a runaway train
You want a happy ending? She says "No!"
Queen... of the Midnight... Cinema!


Popcorn scattered like shells on the floor
Shadows nail you tight against the door
She changes masks, changes genre and style
Saint yesterday, now she's rotten and vile
Projector is melting, time hits a wall
You're stuck with her forever... waiting for the fall!


Plot twists around, no way to rewind
Welcome to the hell that she designed!

Припев
Queen of the Midnight Cinema!
Dark in her eyes, drinking down the drama
She kisses like a gunshot, straight to the brain
Brakes are cut, she's a runaway train
You want a happy ending? She says "No!"
Queen... of the Midnight... Cinema!




The credits never roll...
The lights never shine...
Just you and this endless take, lost in the line.
Yeah!
YEAH!

Припев
Queen of the Midnight Cinema! (She's right here!)
Dark in her eyes, drinking down the drama (Bitter wine!)
She kisses like a gunshot, straight to the brain
Brakes are cut, she's a runaway train
You want a happy ending? She says "No!"
Queen of the Midnight Cinema!


Midnight Cinema...
She won't let you go.
Cut!
