Queen of the Screen Lyrics by Anthony Robustelli

Comfort Is So Rare

2000

In any case, she fought her enemy: unconsciousness—with sedatives—until she’d achieve not only sleep but insensibility

I’m sitting in front of a television
Seeing all the things I can’t have
Is it really that bad?
I guess it could be worse
I could be on the other end
Playing the eternal masquerade
They tell me what to say

The visions flash and flutter
Leaving an enormous strain
I guess that it should hurt me more, but I’ve already turned off my brain

Oh, why does the queen of the screen make me scream?
In the middle of the night the time that I’ve awaited
Why does she haunt me in my dreams?
What does this mean?
What can I say?
Does she understand her words keep the people so sedated?

I’m sitting in front of an empty bar
Thinking of all the things I need
Where can this lead?
Think you can say anything that you want
But no one really cares
Comfort is so rare

I hear another, “Do you come here often?” plea
The banality of that phrase puts another nail in my coffin, you see

Oh, why does the queen of the screen make me scream?
In the middle of the night the time that I’ve awaited
Why does she haunt me in my dreams?
What does this mean?
What can I say?
Does she understand her words keep the people so sedated?

I’m frightened that reality will come from my dreams
Sucked up from out of my chair and fell into the TV screen

Oh, why does the queen of the screen make me scream?
In the middle of the night the time that I’ve awaited
Why does she haunt me in my dreams?
What does this mean?
What can I say?
Does she understand her words keep the people so sedated?
So sedated
So sedated
So sedated
