All the good girls don't want to be good anymore They want to get undressed They're stripping to their ******* and dancing to Take me to Church Good girls getting high and eating carbohydrates Good girls wondering what was so great about being good About being skinny and sitting in the front of the class Good girls shredding their 4.0 transcript and missing work for the first time Good girls are ruining their best pair of shoes in the rain in the parking lot All the good girls just traded in their carpools for motorcycles They've burned their old textbooks They're trading greek yogurt for whiskey Good girls don't know what danger feels like They don't understand near misses or almost endings Icarus flew too close to the sun But Icarus was a beautiful backlit silhouette before he dripped out of existence and drowned All the good girls thought they were drowning, Thought they could drink themselves out Maybe their angel wings would melt in the neon lights and they would be human again All the grit they put into class was supposed to hold them together But they've decided it was just sand paper, tearing their skin off They've swiped eyeshadow on their ******* and called it art
All the good girls woke up hungover for the first time in a stranger's bed All the phone lines are jammed: they're calling their father's and their priests They want to confess and apologize They've thrown away all of the gifts they have been blessed with Except one She stopped believing in miracles Something was different Maybe it was the way she cut her hair Or the tattoo she got on her ankle last night screaming courage out to her But she'll kiss him one more time before she leaves and never see him again She wants to stain his memories until she is nothing but a figment of his mind She'll walk out to her car with just a tshirt over her *******, barefoot with heels in hand She wants to drive him mad Maybe it was the way she filled in her eyebrows Or exactly the right amount of *****, but Her mother was dead And her father was a conservative who believed in closing the wage gap She could be revolutionary
