[Chorus]
This is the story of Victoria, just like a mournin' dove
And there's no glory in dysphoria, Victoria
[Verse 1]
She couldn't cope and got a rope when she had lost all hope and didn't know what else to do
She wrote a note, an anecdote of her troubles and woes, and left it in plain view
[Pre-Chorus]
When her father arrived, letter in hand, he cried, ran out the house to find
His little girl took her life
[Chorus]
This is the story of Victoria, just like a mournin' dove
(Just like a mournin' dove)
There's no glory in dysphoria, Victoria
(Yeah, Victoria)
[Verse 2]
At thirteen, she was unseen by her whole family, feeling discarded and ignored
She made a plan and diagrammed of how she would be damned if she had taken any more
[Pre-Chorus]
She cannot condone living a life disowned and constantly alone
Leaving pain and strife, retribution like she did it out of spite
The little girl took her life
[Chorus]
This is the story of Victoria, just like a mournin' dove (Yeah!)
There's no glory in dysphoria, Victoria (Victoria!)
This is the story of Victoria, just like a mournin' dove
(Just like a mourning dove)
And there's no glory in dysphoria, Victoria
[Outro]
Like a mournin' dove, the story of (Oh-oh-oh)
Like a mournin' dove, the story of (Oh-oh-oh)
Like a mournin' dove, the story of (Oh-oh-oh)
Victoria!
