Lou Barlow Royalty Lyrics

Who are your royalty?
Who are you trying to please?
Who will you follow tonight?
I know that look you get,
playing dumb for respect.

There when our eyes just met
off with you go play the room

What do you have in mind,
Kind of Frankenstein.
Pieces of people you know.
Collected, Re-arranged. Who's around? Not a change
How to be perfectly cool.

Well I've seen you bend in shape
turn on me, I can wait.
soon we'll be here all alone
slowly re-appear? not tonight I fear
you've found a new you to be
Someone nothing like me.

Don't let me pick a fight. Let me say goodnight and go home.
before I'm enraged you are getting to close,
to the throne

Could be, in me, my my own jealousy,
making things ugly again,
making me curse your name,
lighting a fire of blame.
Burning what good things we have.
making me nothing but sad.

No its not me,
I am one of the many
You've used and betrayed
in your way on your way
and I know you don't know what you do
when you find your king
when you find your queen
you'll do anything but try

to be honest and true, not hide
