Lyrics
Drama Queen in Your Head [C Diane Westin]
Constant chatter, fear, and lies, my mind hides truth behind a disguise
My brain's acting up like a spoiled child, It's wild.
Thoughts like snipers, constant unrest. Gotta unravel this relentless mess
Feels like a case of brain distress, it's a mess.
Chorus:
Can't fight the war with words, Gotta step back and watch the absurd,
Observe, slowly, watch and wait, is how you stop a runaway train
Stopping the drain in your brain, stop believing the lies and dread
Living in the moment instead, no more drama queen, trapped in your head.
Verse 2
Running play backs in my mind, How could you have acted so unkind,
I'm rehashing words, composing lines, all the time,
I should have said black when you said white, you're not here and we're having a fight
The narrator keeps talking on and on, it's so wrong
Chorus
Bridge:
In the moment there's hidden magic, be like a child.
Verse 3
The drama queen was dogging me today, she was directing another play
You were the lead cheating on me, I screamed,
So I rose above it like a hawk in the sky, from the clouds I could see the lie,
The judge and jury just disappeared, No more fear
Chorus
