I was just eighteen,
Days ago, I was a child
It was his Birthday,
45 years round the sun
No one seemed to think that I was out of place
In the bar, drinking beer with all his friends
No one ever asked me if I was okay
When I was too drunk to stand
They just walked away
He took me home with him
Into the darkness hand in hand
Never felt more shame
It took me years to understand
Eyes upon me, like I was the one to blame
Like everyone in the whole world new my name
Temptation he could not resist
My young body, my rosy red lips
Be free, Beauty Queen
Don't wear that crown forever
There's more to you than they can see
Be free Beauty Queen
Don't wear that smile forever
There's more to life than you now know
Soon I left Brighton
Took a train home to cure my blues
I dreamt of heaven
Gap in the clouds
Light to break through
It was just the beginning
I thought it was the end
I was yet to meet my two best friends
Told me all of the shit that they went through
And without them I don't know what I would do
Be free, Beauty Queen
Don't wear that crown forever
One day you will shine without it
Be free Beauty Queen
Don't wear that smile forever
Sometimes you're stronger without it

I was just eighteen,
Days ago, I was a child
It was his Birthday,
45 years round the sun
No one seemed to think that I was out of place
In the bar, drinking beer with all his friends
No one ever asked me if I was okay
When I was too drunk to stand
They just walked away
He took me home with him
Into the darkness hand in hand
Never felt more shame
It took me years to understand
Eyes upon me, like I was the one to blame
Like everyone in the whole world new my name
Temptation he could not resist
My young body, my rosy red lips
Be free, Beauty Queen
Don't wear that crown forever
There's more to you than they can see
Be free Beauty Queen
Don't wear that smile forever
There's more to life than you now know
Soon I left Brighton
Took a train home to cure my blues
I dreamt of heaven
Gap in the clouds
Light to break through
It was just the beginning
I thought it was the end
I was yet to meet my two best friends
Told me all of the shit that they went through
And without them I don't know what I would do
Be free, Beauty Queen
Don't wear that crown forever
One day you will shine without it
Be free Beauty Queen
Don't wear that smile forever
Sometimes you're stronger without it
