Queen of the World Songtext

von Ryan Adams

She don't want to be here
She lost your sound sleeping high
Trying to find her way back here
Count, count all you want
They're not really sheep
It's the shit that you did
It's why you can't sleep
It's why you never will
She gets high and says that she's the queen of the whole world
Just look at her shine
She's coming around
Got money in the bank
Got no one to trust, it's all gone
And there
She walks that lonely street
Idling fine
Forget this is not taught, it's just understood
Who paid the phone bill?
Who fuckin' cares?
She lets on
She's the queen of everything now
To see you walking by
She's so fine
Everything is so sweet
Everything moves the way it should
And everything's gone, now the time
So welcome to it babe
Welcome to the night
Welcome to it babe
Welcome for a while
Loving pictures in the aftermath
Feels easy now no wind to bring back all the hell up on the street
Things you might forget, you go counting sheep or counting silhouettes
You feel clean
Washing it off with memories
That just don't mean a fuck
You wish you were like the rest of us
So stupid in taking our time
So stupid in taking our time
It's dead night
