Sticks and stones
Can’t break my throne
Built up from the finest gold

I earned it from your broken bones
As you bled in crimson tones

And now here I am
At your tombstone
Begging on my hands and knees
For the only thing I ever wanted
So maybe now I can sleep in peace

I thought you loved me
It was what you said
Every night
Before you lay in bed

But it was all just pretend
So I cut off your head
So then
You could never leave me

But now
You see
I’m still so empty

Left without the only thing
I ever wanted from you

But I’ll search near and far
To find where you buried your heart
Because your love was the only thing I asked of you
But it’s the only thing you couldn’t give me

So when I lay in bed
Above your severed head
I’ll tell you
I love thee
And sip on bitter tea
Singing
I never wanted to be
Your Red Queen
