Long Live The Queen

https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast Bye, bye, to everything I thought was on my side Bye, bye, baby I want you back but it's come down to nothing And all I have is your sympathy 'Cause you took me home but you just couldn't keep me Bye, bye, baby

Part 2 @ https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast How long will it be cute, all this crying in my room? When you can't blame it on my youth And roll your eyes with affection And my cheeks are growing tired From turning red and faking smiles Are we only biding time 'til I lose your attention And someone else lights up the room? People love an ingénue

https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast 'Cause I fell from the pedestal Right down the rabbit hole Long story short, it was a bad time Pushed from the precipice Clung to the nearest lips Long story short, it was the wrong guy

Part 2 @ https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast And we know it's never simple, never easy Never a clean break, no one here to save me You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand

https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast Hello Mr. "Perfectly fine" How's your heart after breaking mine? Mr. "Always at the right place at the right time," baby Hello Mr. "Casually cruel" Mr. "Everything revolves around you" I've been Miss "Misery" since your goodbye And you're Mr. "Perfectly fine"

Part 2 @ https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast We were blind to unforeseen circumstances We learned the right steps to different dances And fell victim to interlopers' glances Lost the game of chance, what are the chances?

Part 2 @ https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast And I was catching my breath Staring out an open window Catching my death And I couldn't be sure I had a feeling so peculiar That this pain would be for Evermore

Part 2 @ https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast Did some things you can't speak of But at night you live it all again You wouldn't be shattered on the floor now If only you had seen what you know now then.

Part 2 @ https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did I've been spending the last eight months Thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end But on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again

Part 2,3, &4 @ https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast I've been the archer I've been the prey Who could ever leave me darling... But who could stay?

You grew up in a silver-spoon gated community Glamorous, shiny, bright Beverly Hills I was raised on a farm, no, it wasn't a mansion Just livin' room dancin' and kitchen table bills

Part 2 @ https://www.patreon.com/c/LongLivetheQueenPodcast Six weeks of breathing clean air I still miss the smoke Were you making fun of me with some esoteric joke? Now I want to sell my house and set fire to all my clothes And hire a priest to come and exorcise my demons Even if I die screaming And I hope you hear it

I know I'm probably better off all alone Than needing a man who could change his mind at any given minute

And I was catching my breath Staring out an open window Catching my death And I couldn't be sure I had a feeling so peculiar That this pain would be for Evermore

They aren't gonna help us Too busy helping themselves They aren't gonna change this We gotta do it ourselves They think that it's over But it's just begun

But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time Honey, I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time I've got a list of names and yours is in red, underlined I check it once, then I check it twice, oh!

They told me all of my cages were mental So I got wasted like all my potential And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad I have a lot of regrets about that I was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere Fell behind all my classmates and I ended up here Pourin' out my heart to a stranger But I didn't pour the whiskey

Come on, come on don't leave me like this I thought I had you figured out Something's gone terribly wrong, you're all I wanted Come on, come on don't leave me like this I thought I had you figured out Can't breathe whenever you're gone Can't turn back, now I'm haunted

'Cause I can see you waitin' down the hall from me And I could see you up against the wall with me And what would you do? Baby, if you only knew That I can see you

Your past and mine are parallel lines Stars all aligned and they intertwined

What's it like to brag about raking in dollars And getting bitches and models? And it's all good if you're bad And it's okay if you're mad If I was out flashin' my dollars I'd be a bitch, not a baller They'd paint me out to be bad So it's okay that I'm mad

So here you are, two steps ahead and staying on guard Every lesson forms a new scar They never thought you'd make it this far But turn around, oh they've surrounded you It's a showdown, and nobody comes to save you now.

'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this, You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless.

'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this, You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless.

'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this, You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless.
