It's the same thousand year old story On a continuous loop Spinning out of control Yet too familiar to be unrecognizable The same beginning... She doesn't merely embody beauty She is a very real piece of it She is the dust floating through space Breathing life into all within her reach A Queen The same middle... Her enchantment must be squashed The fate of it all rests on her shoulders The weight of it crushing her womb She births the men of the world Men who represent humanity Undeservingly The same end... The world cannot go on Not without her ultimate sacrifice And the many others along the way She trades pleasure for heroism Love for security, and all the rest In the end The only phrase the people can muster For the queen, mind you All of the queens of the world Off with her head!

Queen
It's the same thousand year old story On a continuous loop Spinning out of control Yet too familiar to be unrecognizable The same beginning... She doesn't merely embody beauty She is a very real piece of it She is the dust floating through space Breathing life into all within her reach A Queen The same middle... Her enchantment must be squashed The fate of it all rests on her shoulders The weight of it crushing her womb She births the men of the world Men who represent humanity Undeservingly The same end... The world cannot go on Not without her ultimate sacrifice And the many others along the way She trades pleasure for heroism Love for security, and all the rest In the end The only phrase the people can muster For the queen, mind you All of the queens of the world Off with her head!
