Reign of the Black Rose

(Intro-Heavy Guitar Riff) (Verse 1) In the palm of my hand, you keep dancing Reflected in your eyes is a love maddeningly intense How many times have I pierced you with crimson thorns? Yet you smile, kneeling before me (Chorus) Ah, I am the queen of the black rose Binding you within my reign The deeper the scars, the stronger our bond grows Knowing you can't escape, yet you keep on loving me (Verse 2) Each time I toy with you with these cold fingertips You tremble in pain but still reach for me That endless love fills me to the core As I sink into this cruel pleasure (Chorus) Ah, I am the queen of the black rose Entwining you in my dark embrace The more you suffer, the more beautiful, the deeper this love With each wound, I too am falling into love’s abyss (Guitar Solo) (Bridge) Every time I offer my sharpened thorns You respond with that defenseless love (Bass Solo) (Chorus) Ah, I am the queen of the black rose Binding you within my reign Drowning together in this forbidden love Swearing an endless love through the wounds we share (Outro) Even if this body withers away I’ll scatter with your love until the very end…
