Queen of Revenge

Betrayed by my lover
He left me and he’s gone with the daughter of the king
I’m a witch in despair
My heart bleeds deeply within like has been stabbed

Now that I’m facing reality
Some thoughts are crossing my mind
Thoughts of revenge
Thoughts of justice, the justice I deserve
He will regret
He has to feel the same pain I felt
It’s the only way

Children, you are the answer to my plan
You can be useful for me
Oh yes you can!
Children, you’re the live memory of what I used to be
Of whom I used to be with
You are the fruit of a betrayed marriage
And she, the mistress princess will make part of my plan too
You shall not be together with me in here suffering

Take this poisoned gift
I’ll pretend I can forgive
Take it and die!
Feel the flames burning your skin!
Feel the pain!

She lays dead so as the king
Now it’s time for the other part of my revenge
Children! Oh children your father will soon be here
And feel he taste of disgrace!

What a pain in my heart!
Oh my children!
What has she done?
This is horrible! A tragedy!
My children do not breathe
Please children breathe!
Please children live!

They are dead, yes they are!
This is my revenge
Tell me how does it feel to be dead inside?
This is my justice

The hate and jealousy destroyed the innocent children
The hate and jealousy became revenge
For her became justice
This is the tragedy of an entire family
A tragedy of an entire family   

Escrevi este texto pensando que poderia servir como uma letra para uma canção. Imaginei-a como seguindo o estilo de metal sinfónico, com elementos de ópera, incluindo um coro e sons dramáticos, remetentes para uma orquestra. Esta letra remete para uma História Clássica, nomeadamente a História de Medeia que após ser deixada pelo marido que se envolve com a filha do rei, fica devastada e sedenta de vingança. Por isso mata a filha do rei e incluindo os próprios filhos para que o seu ex-marido sinta a dor que ela sentiu.
Daí o título: Rainha da Vingança.
