Every winter I become dragon Wings unfurl Black combat boots crunch Against the icy ground Claws raking streaks like stars Every winter I become dragon Because my heart is a princess Stuck within the towers created by my ribcage She mourns I grow scales of armor Every winter I become dragon "This isn't working out" The sound of tears washes over the chambers of the castle I swish my tail, I close my eyes I can feel the walls tremble Every winter I become dragon Because I grow stronger I do so because I realize only I am able to protect myself I curl myself around the princess and swear to do better Spring will come, in time

Every winter I become dragon Wings unfurl Black combat boots crunch Against the icy ground Claws raking streaks like stars Every winter I become dragon Because my heart is a princess Stuck within the towers created by my ribcage She mourns I grow scales of armor Every winter I become dragon "This isn't working out" The sound of tears washes over the chambers of the castle I swish my tail, I close my eyes I can feel the walls tremble Every winter I become dragon Because I grow stronger I do so because I realize only I am able to protect myself I curl myself around the princess and swear to do better Spring will come, in time
