Queen of the Night

Girl it’s just not you, all the things you’re blaming on your youth
The rumors that you ran across the bridge, they got here today
Girl you’re just confused. Of all things things that you mistake for truth
That cynicism lacks the charm it had yesterday
Even with your body on fire, it’s hard to believe you’re fully alive
But even if you’re Queen of the Night, girl, you’re gonna be fine
Girl this isn’t you, all the things that you’re afraid to do
Forgetting all the times you pushed aside what got in the way
Girl this isn’t new, of all the things you’re blaming on your youth
That pessimism lacks the charm it had yesterday
You’ll never get it back; it’s floating away
You think you’re Queen of the night
The way it’s filling your mind, the way it’s calling your name
The way it’s drawing you back
Because you’re Queen of the night
The way it’s lining your eyes, yeah, it’s always the same
I know you better than that. Oh, how you think you know!
Even if you’re Queen of the Night, girl, you’re gonna be fine
Remember when you grabbed me by the hip and then you
Spoke aloud, demanding that it straighten, and it did, and I walked taller for
a year?
Remember how you used to hold your head up, how you
Calmed the mob when they were getting fed up, and you saw the glow of favor in
the mirror?
Oh yeah, you’re Queen of the Night
The way you’re cutting a line, the way you’re chasing a flame
I know you’re better than that
Oh yeah, you’re Queen of the night
The way it’s filling your mind, the way it’s calling your name
The way it’s drawing you back
I guess you’re Queen of the night
The way it’s lining your eyes, yeah, it’s always the same
I hope you’re better than that
Oh, don’t you know that Eternal Youth will turn on you? Eternal Youth!
Eternal Youth will turn on you? Eternal Youth!
Even if you’re Queen of the Night, girl, you’re gonna be fine
Even if you’re Queen of the Night, girl, you’re gonna be fine
