queen of hearts 2

The gift she possesses
Is not rare, but common
Amongst other hearts
And other diamonds

To shield her power
And seize her lust
Keep it hid
She must

The hand that's dealt
Unveils a reclaimed province
Summons abdication
And (in)voluntary surrender

To shield her power
And stow her trust
Keep it hid
She must

A mere digression
Will draw them near
(too near)
To perceive weakness
And trump

Territory trotted
Bears thy suit of honor
Her suit of armor acts as a shield
As it takes blows

All the kingsmen gather
Behold thy polished steel
Only the light of Sun
Can reveal its dings and scratches
(let it shine)
And show true
Her battle wounds

To shield her power
And protect her hearts
Keep it hid
She must
