Letra de Beauty Queen - Holly Macve

I was just eighteen

Days ago, I was a child

It was his birthday

Forty-five years 'round the sun

No one seemed to think that I was out of place

In the bar, drinking beer with all his friends

No one ever asked me if I was okay

When I was too drunk to stand, they just walked away

He took me home with him

Into the darkness, hand in hand

Never felt more shame

It took me years to understand

Eyes upon me, like I was the one to blame

Like everyone in the whole world knew my name

Temptation he could not resist

My young body, my rosy red lips

Be free, beauty queen

Don't wear that crown forever

There's more to you than they can see

Be free, beauty queen

Don't wear that smile forever

There's more to life than you now know

Soon, I left Brighton

Took a train home to cure my blues

I dreamt of heaven

Gap in the clouds, light to break through

It was just the beginning, I thought it was the end

I was yet to meet my two best friends

Told me all of the shit that they'd been through

Without them, I don't know what I'd do

Be free, beauty queen

Don't wear that crown forever

One day, you will shine without it, ooh

Be free, beauty queen (Be free)

Don't wear that smile forever

Sometimes, you're stronger without it
