Black Cat Royalty

I step through the fog with a crumb made of night

Every candle leans when I enter the light

Boot's on the stone like a thunderous sign

All of your shadows are falling in line

Hear that echo, hear that ring

The bats in the rafters start to sing

I don't knock, I don't wink

I arrive and the dark knows my name

I stride in like the owner of every shadow

Hands in the air at the midnight gallows

Sweet little fear with a glittering bow

I'm the spark in the black and you already know

I stride in like the order of every shadow

Bow to the beat as the old walls tremble

Playful and proud with the royal glow

I'm the queen of the night when the jack-o'-lantern show

Piano flashes like a knife in a grin

Pitsy cat whispers where the secrets have been

I paint the room with a fearless parade

And the moonlight tilts when my entrance is made

Hear that echo, hear that ring

The bats in the rafters start to sing

I don't knock, I don't wait

I arrive and the dark knows my name

I stride in like the owner of every shadow

Hands in the air, let the midnight gallop

Sweet little fear with a glittering bow

I'm the spark and the black and you already know

I stride in like the the owner of every shadow

Bow to the beat as the old walls tremble

Playful and proud with a royal glow

I'm the queen of the night when the jackal ends in show

If you hear my laughter, follow the sound

I'm the hidden throne in this haunted town

No chains, no gates, no curse can hold

I wear the dark like velvet and gold

I stride in like the odour of every shadow

Hands in the air, let the midnight gallop

Sweet little fear with a glittering bow

I'm the spark and the black and you already know

I stride in like the odours of every shadow

Bow to the beat as the old walls tremble

Playful and proud, let the mojo blow

I'm the queen of the night when the jackal ends in show

So I'll light the hole and unlock the door

I've been the dark you were waiting for
