Unfamiliar doorway, crazy figures on the floor
Faces in the hallway staring daggers through the wall
I was at the party but I wished I'd never been
The stranger on the scene, the guest in someone's
dream
The room was smaller with the guests pouring in
"Take a card:' they said, "you need your fortune read"
"Take some good advice and leave when you are led"
The Queen of Broken Hearts had come to warm my
bed
It was getting later the clocks all stayed the same
Everyone was gathered round to play the party game
Someone shouted "Suicide!", and everybody laughed
The game had gone too far and I drew the Hangman's
card
Then they turned the lights back on and left me in the
dark
"Take a card:' they said, "you need your fortune read"
"Take some good advice and leave when you are led"
The Queen of Broken Hearts had come to warm my
bed
We love a hero gone beyond the reach of our
applause -
We scream his name and call "Encore!"
