Queen For a Day Lyrics

You can start a holy fire in a

Trash can in the park

You can kick and knock it over just to

Dance among the sparks

You can call for law and order

You can rain down anarchy

You can strike down revolution

"God said this belongs to me"

So scream and shout

The fire's out

The sun has gone away

You're not the boss of anyone

You were only ever queen for a day

You can fight it or deny it, live your life

The way you choose

Head strung out on delusions only

Paved with minor truths

You can pass down your decrees to

Anyone still left around

You were never one to buy your myth

Or salt the hallowed ground

So scream and shout

The fire's out

The sun has gone away

You're not the boss of anyone

You were only ever queen for a day

Calling all the martyrs

Come declare yourselves

Master of your downfall

Your death wish down the well

Come give your devotion

Come and kiss me sore

Love me for a moment

And the note I never gave you

Principality left to rot

The letter that you wanted

Filled with words I never thought

And the oceans are still rising

But we dance until it's dark

The future is a made up thing

And you and I will go out with the sparks
