My Kingdom is a Wasteland

"My Kingdom"

[Keep fighting the good fight, babe]

I was born in a chamber
made of metal and regrets
they call it a shelter
but they seem to forget
that our bodies still sweat
and I'm willing to bet
that I'm as good as it gets

I was born to wander alone

So I
I am an outlaw
and it won't be too long
until I make this my nest
no one can resist the sway of my hips
there is no one sitting at my right hand
I'm the queen of the apocalypse
and my kingdom is a wasteland

[Just stay out of her way]

when bombs are matched with bigotry
we're doomed to repeat history
their precious tower is collecting rust
and my skin is caked with all the dust
now we're ruled by lies and lust
betrayed by ones we're fooled to trust
who shield their faces in disgust

I was born to wander alone

so I
I am an outlaw
and it won't be too long
until I make this my nest
no one can resist the sway of my hips
there is no one sitting at my right hand
I'm the queen of the apocalypse
and my kingdom is a wasteland

never fear, children, mother is here
I will be your savior, I will dry your tears
when water becomes dirty, I will purify
every drop of blood spilled, I will justify

I am cursed to wander alone

so I
I am an outlaw
and it won't be too long
until I make this my nest
no one can resist the sway of my hips
there is no one sitting at my right hand
I'm the queen of the apocalypse
and my kingdom is a wasteland

I'm the Queen of the Apocalypse
and my Kingdom is a Wasteland
