Lyrics[]
Won't you see
I'm your queen?
Come with me
I'm a thief
Float with me
Lie to me
Make me think
I'm your queen
You say I'm young
You say I'm dumb
You say it's true
But I'm stuck on you
I think you want to see me numb
It's nothing new
But I'm stuck on you
I see you over me
In my dreams
I'm asleep
Make me think
I'm your queen
Lie to me
I'm a thief
You say I'm young
You say I'm dumb
You say it's true
But I'm stuck on you
I think you want to see me numb
It's nothing new
But I'm stuck on you
And I never had the words to say
That I want you back
And I never had the nerve to say
That I want you back
Lie to me
Make me think I'm your queen
Float with me
You say I'm young
You say I'm dumb
You say it's true
But I'm stuck on you
I think you want
To see me numb
It's nothing new
But I'm stuck on you
I saw you over me
In my dreams, I'm asleep
Make me think I'm your queen
I'm a thief
Won't you see
I'm your queen?
Come with me
I'm a thief
Float with me
Lie to me
Make me think
I'm your queen
You say I'm young
You say I'm dumb
You say it's true
But I'm stuck on you
I think you want to see me numb
It's nothing new
But I'm stuck on you
I see you over me
In my dreams
I'm asleep
Make me think
I'm your queen
Lie to me
I'm a thief
You say I'm young
You say I'm dumb
You say it's true
But I'm stuck on you
I think you want to see me numb
It's nothing new
But I'm stuck on you
And I never had the words to say
That I want you back
And I never had the nerve to say
That I want you back
You say I'm young
You say I'm dumb
You say it's true
But I'm stuck on you
I think you want to see me numb
It's nothing new
But I'm stuck on you
And I never had the words to say
That I want you back
And I never had the nerve to say
That I want you back
