City Queen Rissa

Glitter in the city, she's the queen tonight
Dancing on the edge, where the neon lights
Fairy tales in heels, living out her dreams
But the clock's ticking, and the night's not what it seems

She walks the streets, in her glass shoes so tight
City's heartbeat, under the moon's soft light
Rags to riches, but the story's not clear
Every glance, every step, she's living on the edge here

No prince in shining armor, just a ride in a car
From the back alleys to the bright stars
Her smile's a mask, her eyes tell the truth
In this concrete jungle, she's got nothing to lose

Glitter in the city, she's the queen tonight
Dancing on the edge, where the neon lights
Fairy tales in heels, living out her dreams
But the clock's ticking, and the night's not what it seems

She's got the moves, the charm, the perfect line
Turning heads, making them think, making them pine
But behind the scenes, the story's a bit skewed
A girl in the spotlight, but her heart is bruised

She's the star, but the stage is a trap
Living the dream, but the dream's a bit damp
Every laugh, every cheer, hides the pain inside
In this world of glitter, she's just trying to survive

Glitter in the city, she's the queen tonight
Dancing on the edge, where the neon lights
Fairy tales in heels, living out her dreams
But the clock's ticking, and the night's not what it seems

Behind the glamour, the real story lies
A girl with a dream, but the price is high
She's the modern Queen, in a different kind of tale
Where the ending's not set, and the future's frail

Glitter in the city, she's the queen tonight
Dancing on the edge, where the neon lights
Fairy tales in heels, living out her dreams
But the clock's ticking, and the night's not what it seems

So she dances, through the night
Hoping for a different light
In the city, where dreams collide
She's the queen, but the clock ticks, and the night's a lie
