“Make Me Your Queen” is the fifth track from Declan’s debut LP What Do You Think About the Car? about a relationship between two people that could become abusive. Talking to DIY Magazine Declan had this to say about the song:

[Verse 1]
I know that I mean nothing to you, babe
I've tried my best to keep these thoughts away
Oh, I've tried to speak but there's nothing left to say
'Cause I mean nothing to you, babe
[Verse 2]
I know that I mean nothing to you, dear
If ever I stop by you're never here
And I don't mean shit, I know you've made that clear
'Cause I mean nothing to you, dear
[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

And I can't help but think that I might

[Chorus]

[Chorus]
So make me your queen
So make me your queen
So make me your queen
So make me your queen
[Outro]
Oh, it's all too much to take
I'm awake, I'm awake
