Damsel

I’m a damsel
Not to be rescued
Ready to break free
Out of my bedroom

This town’s on fire
All home to dragons’ caves
I’m sick of waiting
On a prince to save the day

So I’ll take my dress in my hand
No sword, just a girl, with a plan

I’ll be my hero
I’ll scale the walls
And I’ll keep on fighting
Until I fall

Though I am weak
I’m standing strong
I’ll be my hero
‘Cause my prince was taking way too long

Now there’s the rumor
That I’m crazy
Bring on the myths
Bring on the fables
‘Cause crazy must mean free

And I’ll take my dress in my hand
No armor, just a girl, with a plan

I’ll be my hero
I’ll scale the walls
And I’ll keep on fighting
Until I fall

Though I am weak
I’m standing strong
I’ll be my hero
‘Cause my prince was taking way too long

Now
Bring on the battle
The monsters
The liars

I’ll
Ready myself for
The wounds and
The slanders

Someone write my name down in a book
No matter I lose it
Or I make it
You’ll remember
I escaped it

So I’ll be my hero
I’ll scale the walls
And I’ll keep on fighting
Until I fall

Though I am weak
I’m standing strong
I’ll be the hero
‘Cause my prince was taking way too long
