Never The Queen

Princess Me

By Hay CollinsPublished 11 months ago • 1 min read

I'll never amount to that girl.

I can never measure up.

I'll never be in her shoes.

Always the princess I'll be.

Cause I can never measure up.

Always looking for a King

I'll never be the Queen.

All this anxiety has a grip on me.

The dreams I hold dear

They will never be,

I got a nak for not being me.

They don't see, all these tears I bleed

Cause the tears come only silently.

They speak to me the only truth I can see

Cause this life I live, is so recklessly

I need a savior, a Knight in armor

Send me a King only I can see.

Cause she's where I want to be,

it hurts so devastatingly.

How could I let this be

The life I don't want to see

Always looking for a King

I’ll never be the Queen.

All these thoughts in my head.

Have nowhere to escape.

They are haunting me.

Reminding me of the past

All the mistakes I made.

Revealing the ones I’m making on ash.

I'm real good at burning things down

It doesn't take long for me to be running around

Bare feet against burning coals

Still I walk with my head high

no one can bring me down

Round and round

Circles I go round

Always looking for a King

I'll never be the Queen.

Stuck in this misery

Must be how the princess can frown

All the royalties

never the crown.

I'll never be the Queen.
