Dancing With the Guilt Queen
Dancing with the guilt queen
swaying in the dark
loaded lead and magnetized
with trouble in my heart
She won't stop the music
or let me catch my breath
She's told me it's a contest
We dance until the death
Spinning world is listless
My feet catch fire and burn
She dips me into tear pools
We turn, and turn and turn
Dancing with the guilt queen
a brutal thing to do
I am my worst enemy
I'll bet that you are too...
