I watched it tumble and fall As if I were humpty dumpty Watching as my face cracked in half And the hands of my sweet friends Surrounded me so quickly In their shining armor To put me back together again.
But I don't know That it so completely worked The pieces were crooked Not quite in perfect precision.
So as time passed The pieces of my face Fell apart once more Along the sides of the street Across the table From a new man As I traveled around And forgot how to stand Tall.
So I've got those remains In my warm strong hands And I'm piece by piece Placing them in perfect precision Myself.
Sometimes I wanna respond with a widespread Beautiful vengeance Thinking in moments I've got it all figured out Here for the world to look at.
I feel so lost sometimes Like maybe I'm not where I'm supposed to be Or like I could weep Right into the depths Of Niagara Falls And here Here I am again.
This is not going to be a quick fix There is no prince And I am certainly no princess.
Because I'm a ******* queen Who has to put the pieces together herself Defining and loving myself Through my own flight Every bit of it And no amount of vengeance Will heal my wounds.
