Sarah Shotwell - Queen of the Night lyrics

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
