As I watch the scene through the bars of my cell

I hear them constantly referring to me as the fallen queen

They chant louder that I will burn in deepest depths of hell

But don't know the truth for they only see what they wish to see

True I did do what my patriarchy had commanded of me

But I did not truly mean for it to come to this revolution

Our death toll is too high and our food is scarce to naught

Yet if I must be judged and tried for all my actions

And be sacrificed in front of all my fellow country men

Then I fully accept my fate if it will sedate the people of France

I will walk proudly to the blade like a Queen should be

Regal and without fear like my father before me

And when I am gone I pray that you all will know peace
