Crooked Court of Dreams

[Verse 1]
In another life I could have been you
And stood inside your clinking bones
And though I longed to guillotine you
I had demons of my own
I pursued them through all seasons
Driven by desire supreme
Now I'm back torn and freezing
With a skullful of reasons
To expose your treason
In the crooked court of dreams
Crooked court of dreams

[Verse 2]
A broken soldier rode beside me
Hair and armoured shirt ablaze
I bid her wait but she defied me
Like Joan of Arc, obsessed and crazed
Through sundrownеd shadows I trailed her
In the hopе we'd be redeemed
But she was crucified - I failed her
When they bound and jailed her
Straight down and nailed her
In the crooked court of dreams
Crooked court of dreams

[Bridge]
I can hear a hundred voices
In the hollow behind my eyes
I can hear a hundred voices
In the hollow behind my eyes
Compelling me to act
But which are real and which are lies?

[Verse 3]
When they bound and jailed her
Straight down and nailed her
In the crooked court of dreams
Crooked court of dreams
Crooked court of dreams
