Royal We

I spend my nights filled with grief for the life and the force

That I was before you changed it

When we built a home, turned the chairs into thrones

Guess we got comfortable around the edges

I put you on a pedestal

Let you love me skeletal

We got so inseparable

I almost forgot how

Before I had you, I was free

Took my kingdom come

Traded it for loyalty

Did it all for love

Now I'm running all my dreams

By the king and queen

I used to speak for me

But now, I use the royal we

Walk in the room and your touch is like glue

Fixing me to your skin, I'm your appendage

Your better half, am I better than that?

Is my worth mine or yours, or a percentage?

I put us on a pedestal

Put us on a pedestal

Where everything's symmetrical

Everything's symmetrical

Love's supposed to make you whole

I almost forgot how

Before I had you, I was free

Let my walls come down

I looked up and Troy was breached

And you wore my crown

Now I'm running all my dreams

By the king and queen

I used to speak for me

But now, I use the royal we

I used to be

So used to me on my own

I got used to we

Uh-huh

I'll be running all my dreams

And your touch is like glue

By the king and queen

Now I'm running all my dreams

By the king and queen

I used to speak for me

But now, I use the royal we
