Lyric

The afternoon glare hits my heavy head

Waking up to the hustle, leaving my bed

When the neon nights don't go the way I planned

I just sigh and deal with the cards in my hand

But I won't complain today, I won't leave a trace

Hiding all my flaws behind this perfect face

Casting a magic spell in the mirror's glow

Smiling at the glass, ready for the show!

Always standing right beneath the chandelier's light!

I wanna bloom the brightest, taking over the night!

The pressure is heavy, almost breaking my bones

But I'll never surrender this velvet Queen's throne!

I'm used to the fake romance, the sweet little lies

The calculated games hidden in their eyes

But beyond the closing night and the quota's demand

What is the real me trying to hold in my hand?

Staring at my dress, ignoring the jealous stares

Swallowing the drama like nobody cares

I keep on walking through this VIP floor

Proving my worth, making them beg for more!

Gotta be worthy of the flashing neon signs!

Standing on this glamorous stage where everything shines!

Even my loneliness is swallowed away

Wrapped in the champagne bubbles, taking the pain away!

Like a rose, like a rose, like a rose

Blooming in the midnight, and I never fade away

Stacking up the empty glasses, one by one

Building up my top tier status till the night is done

Look at me closer, keep your eyes on me!

Deep down I just want someone to validate me!

Always standing right beneath the chandelier's light!

I wanna bloom the brightest, taking over the night!

The pressure is heavy, almost breaking my bones

But I'll never surrender this velvet Queen's throne!

I'll keep shining here, I'll never let it go!

Forever the queen of the midnight show!
