Queen of the Castle



Queen of the castle
With one broken king,
Created from nothing,
A casual fling
You wanted it all
You wanted to hide
You built up the ramparts
'til everything died

Queen of the castle
Doors are shut tight
The things you're hiding
Must never see light
A love for the Fascists
A hate of your own,
The people you trampled
So you'd be alone

Queen of the castle
You put on a show
For a small group of people
You wanted to know
Pre-ordained friends
With pre-ordained views
The friendly discussions
About Commies and Jews

Queen of the castle
You're now in command
The king needs your help
He can't even stand
There's noone to talk to
But ghosts in your mind
There's nothing to seek
You have nothing to find

Queen of the castle
Who are you now?

Cosmic, is this a "metal" song? If it is then it works, if it's not, I don't see it being on the top 40. The whole song makes sense except there's one line I don't understand, "you built up the ramparts". What are you trying to say there? Interesting take on medieval times, I like it!
 
Hi Jeff,

Thanks for your comments; I hadn't thougt of it in metal terms, since it is a genre I don;t normally listen to, but looking at it now, yes I think it could work as such. The 'ramparts' bit was just an extension of the king and queen motif, to indicate self-imposed isolation.

Best,

CC

A love for the Fascists
A hate of your {own,}{substitute CROWN} Just a idea
The people you trampled
So you'd be alone..

Good stuff :)
