Queen Underground

from Three Chimes, At Silent Palace! by Star Moles

/

lyrics

I'm not laughing
I just panicked
I hope I don't come off as satanic
I'm sinking like the Titanic
In your eye
Cold as ice

Is it worth it
What's the purpose
of plants that don't get to the surface
And will I be a subterranean slacker
Till I die
All my life

It's only a rat race
Look at the fat cats breaking the rules

Proud of you baby
for swallowing your pride
I couldn't swallow mine
so I'm still caught inside
of the fortress I made
from the tears that I cried
One day I'll forgive you
for changing my mind

But I can't speak to your right now
I don't wanna see you up there
Wearing your golden crown
While I'm queen underground

Some strange cross
between a beetle and a moth
is crawling up the wall with the ivy
From the second story window
I glimpsed prehistoric life
Oh what a time to be alive

And crossing blades
with the jack of all trades
is a risk that I'm willing to take
If it helps me to get rid of that
bittersweet taste I'll risk my life
Sharpening my knife

And he says all is fair
so long as you follow the rules

Proud of you baby
You never told a lie
I'm still weaving mine
and I'm still caught inside
It's a game that I play
It's a pain to keep trying
One day I'll forgive you
for now I'll keep dying

Cuz I can't speak to you right now
I don't wanna see you up there
Wearing your golden crown
While I'm queen underground

Oh I don't believe it's true
My whole life is a song to you
My love
So paint my cheeks red with rouge
So that I may act the fool again
