 We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children 
About the world ending and the scale of my ambition 
And how much is art really worth? 
The very thing you're best at 
Is the thing that hurts the most 
But you need your rotten heart 
Your dazzling pain like diamond rings 
You need to go to war to find material to sing. 
I am no mother 
I am no bride 
I am king. 
I need my golden crown of sorrow 
My bloody sword to swing 
My empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology. 
I am no mother 
I am no bride 
I am king. 
I am no mother 
I am no bride 
I am king. 
But a woman is a changeling 
Always shifting shape 
Just when you think you have it figured out 
Something new begins to take 
What strange claws are these 
Scratching at my skin? 
I never knew my killer would be coming from within. 
I am no mother 
I am no bride 
I am king. 
I am no mother 
I am no bride 
I am king. 
I need my golden crown of sorrow 
My bloody sword to swing 
I need my empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology. 
'cause I am no mother 
I am no bride 
I am king. 
I am no mother 
I am no bride 
I am king. 
I am no mother 
I am no bride 
I am king. 
I am no mother 
I am no bride 
I am king. 
Oh... 
Oh-oh-oh-oh... 
Oh-ooh... 
Oh-oh-oh-oh... 
And I was never as good 
As I always thought I was 
But I knew how to dress it up 
I was never satisfied, it never let me go 
Just dragged me by my hair 
And back on with the show.
