Glass Heel Queen

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She moved like a screen test, all satin and smoke. I met her by the doorway, and forgot how to խոսе. Everybody warned me, “Don’t get tangled too fast.” I laughed at the warning, now I’m living the past. [Pre-Chorus] My mother said, “Watch it, some stories don’t fade.” One look and I folded, one smile and I stayed. She called me her darling, like she knew me by heart, then the room went quiet and the rumors fell apart. [Chorus] She’s not my lover she’s just a flame in my head (oh no) She says I’m the reason that she can’t leave my bed (but no) Everybody points, everybody talks She’s not my lover and the whole world walks [Verse 2] There was a tiny bracelet left on the sink. A voicemail at midnight, a pause too long to think. She swore it was nothing, just a story, just a phase, but the numbers kept calling like a name I couldn’t place. [Pre-Chorus] My mother said, “Watch it, some stories don’t fade.” One look and I folded, one smile and I stayed. She called me her darling, like she knew me by heart, then the room went quiet and the rumors fell apart. [Chorus] She’s not my lover she’s just a flame in my head (oh no) She says I’m the reason that she can’t leave my bed (but no) Everybody points, everybody talks She’s not my lover and the whole world walks [Bridge] Now I’m standing in the hallway, holding names in my hands, trying to read between the lines and understand. If she wants me, say it straight, if she leaves, I let her go, I won’t wear a story that I never told. [Chorus] She’s not my lover she’s just a flame in my head (oh no) She says I’m the reason that she can’t leave my bed (but no) Everybody points, everybody talks She’s not my lover and the whole world walks
