Queen of the Underground

Hi my old friends
Darkened by shadows holding the cup
Of tears of the man who called
Silently slowly, Misunderstanding 

Methodes and rhythm 
to reason and conspiracies 

Finding some way to allow me to be 
The queen of the Underground
Because power is fear
Fear is flight 
and this thing you cannot undo forever 

And for this scar you put an answer
Not to blame anyone
Because it hurts less for you 
That way 
Its not quite real


Just unlike 
the way you saved yourself from the flame 
and threw me into it 
Not knowing that it might come back to you 
Three, five, ten fold 

So watching from a distance 
and communicating through mixed messages because your alone 
and this time 
You went to far 
For the sake of your own demise 

The shadow man told me Im bad
the shadow man told  Me I could be good 

The shadow man writes words about me that I cannot fathom

Hello old friend does this make any sense to you?
