I know
You think I'm corrupt
Just for small things I love doing
That you don't enjoy
I know
You think my morals are low
Just because I like certain clothes
That you consider offensive
I know
You believe I have problems
Only because you hold me to standards I cannot achieve
I cannot be your perfect daughter
I know
You think I'm rebellious
Just because I make my own paths
Making my own road to travel
I know
You are worried about me
You worry that I will regret my life
Be hurt
Well,
I will be hurt
I already have been
I regret a lot
And I will regret later on
But I'd rather live a painful life
Full of regret and hurt
Than one of safety
Inside the castle walls
Protected forever
Untouched
Unscathed
Bored
Useless
I'd rather live outside the palace walls
Than in them
I'd rather explore the world
Than stay at home
I'd rather move all the time
Than stay in one place
I'd rather be seen as a Rebel
Outlaw wandering the world
Loner in a crowd of strangers
Than be seen as a Princess
Stay at home Daughter
Someone waiting for her prince to pick her up
I know
That's the life you want for me
Boring
Princess dream
Girly
Sweet
Pretty
But I already said before:
I make my own road to travel
Even if I'm all alone for a while
It is worth it to me
No Regrets
No Worries
