My greatest jewel
my heart.
its always had a way of beating hard

Wore the crown, lived in the castle
I was even Married to the King
This is when I learned the hard way
Money ain't everything
Richer with nothing on my skin

Now,
Im a
Faded
Queen
and Love is
what I love the most

I’ve been around...cant say that I'm not a little wild
Mature but stupid, you could call me heartbreaks child
I laugh to hide the bruises on my heart
But my love travels through time
so I wish upon Arabellas star

Under mystical sky, I’m dancing and its like
smoke moving slow.....
Playing with the kinda fire  that only wild hearts know
A gypsy’s song, her own wing and a prayer
Love’s a flame that’s everywhere

But...i worry
What if love’s a shooting star?
Too bright, too fast, too far....
After it all...
Will I stand alone in the dark?
watching you fade from my heart?
And then you’ll burn your name into the sky
Then vanish without a goodbye
And I’ll be left, just looking up at night

I'll just disappear
I play poker in the dark
But I’m playing against myself and I lose every hand.
Constellations map out my scars
Diamonds glitter around me
like Demolished plans
and im fading
in the Summer light
its burning me good
****, im only alive in the night

Oh, im a Faded Queen
and Love is what I dream of
the most

Ill lay on lily pads in my mind
and im drifting sinking slow
maybe
the water is my only home
cause the earth
just sinks me deep
I can feel
everything seep
from my heart

Im a fading Queen
a shooting star in the dark
I could be the one that burns
but I desperately want to be the one that returns
Back to Love
