Queen of Kings

(album: Swimming Static - 2021)

Ooh, queen of kings
I'll take you there in the end
Where sisters rule, fortunate fruit
Beautiful unshadowed truth

Daylight in the dark
I've seen all the pavements running on
I've been where the payroll's running out
I mean, I just wanted Avalon
Rewrite of the past
I've seen all the legacies relaxed
I've been where the legion stay at home
I mean, I just wanted Avalon

Wanted Avalon

I'm a modern woman
Same as way back when
I was your two-edged sword, baby
But I cut both ways, yeah, I cut both
It is in my nature
As it is in yours
But my sex is overwritten
And my good will ignored, and my good will ignored

I was your power saviour
I was your queen of nature
I was a force for more, was I wrong?
I mean, I just wanted Avalon
All my good deeds rewritten
All I am made forbidden
A woman's strength now hidden
Say Villain Le Fay, how they twist my name

Daylight in the dark
I've seen all the pavements running on
I've been where the payroll's running out
I mean, I just wanted Avalon
Rewrite of the past
I've seen all the legacies relaxed
I've been where the legion wait at home
I mean, I just wanted Avalon

I was your power saviour
I was your queen of nature
I was a force for more, was I wrong?
I mean, I just wanted Avalon
All my good deeds rewritten
All I am made forbidden
A woman's strength now hidden
Say Villain Le Fay, how they twist my name
Say Villain Le Fay, how they twist my name
