You could have added
Sunlight to my flowers
Could have helped me
See my finest hour
Instead you chose
To block light
With your power
From the safety
Of your ivory tower
And I won't look back when I go
Only you and I will know
Like water smooths
Out the stone
You stand tall
On your throne
I don't want to be ruled
By someone like you
You may have fooled them
But not me
You may have ruled
Unwillingly
I don't want to be ruled
By someone like you
I see right through you
Like chiffon
Won't let you hurt me
On and on
I don't want to be ruled
I don't want to be ruled
Games you played with me
Day by day
Stepping over
Demons in your way
I will watch with a smile
On my face
As you take your fall
From grace
And I won't look back
When I go
And only you and I will know
Like water smooths out the stone
You stand tall on your throne
I don't want to be ruled
By someone like you
You may have fooled them
But not me
You may have ruled
Unwillingly
I don't want to be ruled
By someone like you
I see right through you
Like chiffon
Won't let you hurt me
On and on
I don't want to be ruled
I don't want to be ruled
Gotta make
All these problems
Gotta take
What's not there
And now I can't blossom
And it's just not fair
I don't want to be ruled
By someone like you
You may have fooled them
But not me
You may have ruled
Unwillingly
I don't want to be ruled
By someone like you
I see right through you
Like chiffon
Won't let you hurt me
On and on
I don't want to be ruled
I don't want to be ruled
