Queen of Hearts

Some would say, it was love at first sight

The passion between us burned hot and bright

But it didn't take long, after we said "I do"

For shiny things to turn black and blue

You try to tear me down and put out my flame

Just an empty shell carrying your last name

I gotta say, green really isn't your colour

Glowing against your fancy white collar

You can hate me for all my parts

But baby, I'm a queen of hearts

You put me down every chance you get

In subtle little whispered threats

I'm useless, ugly, and just plain dumb

I'm little and broken and worse than scum

But baby, your words can't piece my armour

You might think you're a snake charmer

Until you get bit

(until you get bit)

I gotta say, green really isn't your colour

Glowing against your fancy white collar

You can hate me for all my parts

But baby, I'm a queen of hearts

I'll rise from your ashes like a phoenix in the night

While you cower and whimper, afraid of the light

I'm a goddess, an enchantress, a master of arts

But you'll never own any of my parts

Cuz baby I'm a queen of hearts
