Nursery Queen

[little children see what's right with everything.
i'll play, you stay and tell me it should be this way]

you taught me how to smile.
i'll make it worth your while.
i never wondered why
you smiled when you went to die.

you taught me how to laugh.
i only got one half.
so after all this work
i've only figured how to smirk.

so stay with me and see how to be my everything.
anatomy. you'll see how to be my nursery queen.

broken. choking. stay with me.

you taught me how to fly.
i thought you'd hit the sky.
i never figured why
you jumped off the edge and said goodbye.

so stay with me and see how to be my everything.
anatomy. work out how to be my nursery queen.

broken. misspoken. stay with me.
you could have seen.
i should have been.
you could be everything to me.
