I love this song.

I agree somehow with roggb.. "rise of a king/fall of a queen" meaning she feels released from the guy that tries to control her and what she says and wants her as a slave.. It's not meaning necesarily that she is falling.. She 'falls' solely in a king/queen context but she is not falling
