He said:
"let's pretend you don't come in waves of blue hair and mystery."
Lets take these shots so you can be a bad girl for me.
And I stood there toeing a half empty beer can
with my beat up boots thinking
"what the **** dude?"
He said I want to get to know you,
I want to see if what they say is true.
I look up through the smoke and the lights and the crowd
and tell you "It is".
And this excites him. "Oh yeah baby I know what you are".
"What am I? I thought was nothing but a blue haired mystery, an enigma, a presence to be desired...",
and he leans in to me, his gin soaked breath in my ear:
"You love, are a ******* temptress."
So now I have been reduced to all damsel all lust all distress.
Those stupid princes never stop to wonder
if the pretty face in the tower even wants to be rescued.
Cause babe, I never asked to be saved.
Cause maybe I have built these walls to keep men like you out.
Or maybe I just wanted to have the chance to
invite you in on my own terms.
Maybe I just wanted to be able to escort you out.
This has never been my prison, this is my tower.
My legacy.
