Royal Pain
It's taken years
To come down to this
No longer will you rule
With such an iron fist
I won't walk on eggshells
I refuse to sit silent
Won't take your tantrums
You act like a child
Always pointing your finger
At all I have done wrong
While sitting so proud
On your pedistool of denial
Making unjustified accusations
I think it may be you
With a guilty conscious
This is the day I take back my crown
I banish you from all the power
So step down off my throne
Watch how a real ruler reigns
As your castle burns
It will be me fanning the flames
