Lay down your swords, Lay down your pistols. Call off your dogs, Show no resistance. You'll fall like a guillotine, Kneel before the queen. You'll fall like a guillotine, And I will rise. Raise up your walls, Tighten your blindfold. Pacing at dawn, Hide in a foxhole. You'll fall like a guillotine, Kneel before the queen. You'll fall like a guillotine, And I will rise. I don't need blue blood, Running through my veins, Because like a queen, like a queen, I can make you say you love me. I don't need blue blood, Running through my veins, Because like a queen, like a queen, I can make you love me. (Woah, oh, woah, oh) (I can make you love me) (Woah, oh, woah, oh) (I can make you love me) Lay down your swords, Lay down your pistols. (I can make you love me) I'll hit your heart, From any distance. (I can make you love me) You'll fall like a guillotine, Kneel before the queen. (I can make you love me) You'll fall like a guillotine, And I will rise. I don't need blue blood, Running through my veins, Because like a queen, like a queen, I can make you say you love me. I don't need blue blood, Running through my veins, Because like a queen, like a queen, I can make you love me. Envy and ire, darkness and light Gods can have it all, so why can't I? Love and desire, life after life, The gods can keep it all, if you'll be mine. And I will rise, and I will rise. (Woah-oh) And I will rise, and I will rise. I don't need blue blood, Running through my veins, Because like a queen, like a queen, I can make you say you love me. I don't need blue blood, Running through my veins, Because like a queen, like a queen, I can make you love me.
