Carnival queen
All the ghosts lay by your side
Moaning, groaning
Songs of woe

Carnival queen
Your hair is on fire
Your arrows pierce my bones

Angel, madonna
Your eyes are on fire
Breathing quiet prayers
Angel, madonna
You breathe
Pumping life into my veins

Carnival queen
All the ghosts stay by your side
Moaning, groaning
Songs of woe

Carnival queen
Your hair is on fire
Your nails pierce my palms
