they call me the jealous queen

that's how the story goes

the one who curses the innocent

while sitting on a marble throne

I used to curse them out of rage

blaming them for my own pain

but I realized that to kings

women are just pawns in a game

if I had the choice. I'd leave him

I often wish for a better life to live

but I swore myself to him

and kings take but do not give

this is my apology to those girls

they're not the villain in my eyes

but how can you curse your husband

when he's the ruler of the skies
