Ian Burdge - Queen of Peace lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, the king Gone mad within his suffering Called out for release Someone cure him of his grief His only son Cut down, but the battle won Oh, what is it worth When all that's left is hurt? [Pre-Chorus] Like the stars chase the sun Over the glowing hill, I will conquer Blood is running deep Some things never sleep [Chorus] Suddenly I'm overcome Dissolving like the setting sun Like a boat into oblivion Cause you're driving me away Now you have me on the run The damage is already done Come on, is this what you want? Cause you're driving me away [Verse 2] Oh, the queen of peace Always does her best to please But is it any use? Somebody's gotta lose Like a long scream Out there, always echoing Oh, what is it worth? All that's left is hurt [Pre-Chorus] Like the stars chase the sun Over the glowing hill, I will conquer Blood is running deep Some things never sleep [Chorus] Suddenly I'm overcome Dissolving like the setting sun Like a boat into oblivion Cause you're driving me away Now you have me on the run The damage is already done Come on, is this what you want? Cause you're driving me away [Bridge] And my love is no good Against the fortress that it made of you Blood is running deep Sorrow that you keep [Chorus] Suddenly I'm overcome Dissolving like the setting sun Like a boat into oblivion Cause you're driving me away Now you have me on the run The damage is already done Come on, is this what you want? Cause you're driving me away [Spoken Word] To give yourself over to another body That's all you want really To be out of your own and consumed by another To swim inside the skin of your lover Not to have to breathe, not to have to think But you can't live on love; salt water's no drink
