Victoria, I hate to be the one to tell you this
But itâs gone beyond
Everyoneâs idea of a joke
I know youâre here
On every surface I smell you near
The scent of cigarettes and Belvadere
Victoria
Morning came, you changed your name
Into a V
no one knows
What you saw, that made your poor heart bleed
Triumphantly
You did declare your only love was me
So how could he shut you away?
But when I sing
Thatâs when I end and then you begin
Itâs sickening in a curious way
But he was strong, his arms were longer than yours
What a cruel finishing, the punishing
Just to be sure
Well heâll know your name
And I now I know I can feel your pain
Again and again and again
What have I done?
My cell is cold
I am so empty and unconsoled
Out of the centerfolds
Victoria
I was alive, so many times
Under your spell
Itâs just as well
You are gone, I wonât be wronged in hell
All of your ashes still burning
Voices that call in the night
I feel as if I have carried you all of my life
Victoria, I will remember nothing else,
Victoria, you were the one
