His love was like a blanket
That he wrapped me in and kept me warm
But without warning
He gave the blanket away to someone new
Leaving me helpless and cold, unsure of what to do

I found my own warmth
In the rage that burned within
But was never quite able
To warm my heart again
Helpless and cold it remained
Like a homeless man caught in the rain

Until one day the fire went out
And all that rage turned into doubt
Then all that doubt turned into strength
Pushing me through to great lengths
To fight for myself once more
And out the love that was hiding began to pour

Green's not your colour baby
The only place it belongs
Is in your curious eyes
In nature and all its beauty
In rainbows, leaves and rolling pastures
In art, splattered richly across a canvas
In emeralds, olives, sea water and grass
This green inside you was not meant to last
Green's not your colour baby
Get it out of your soul
It's been too long since it's been in control
It's time to let go

My temperamental
T E M E R I T Y
Has driven me to
I N S A N I T Y
And it's a
M Y S T E R Y
Why I sabotage
S T A B I L I T Y
For things that drive me

You can beat me
But you won't defeat me
You can bruise me
But I won't lose me
You can attack me
But you won't crack me
You can tarnish my name
But I won't play your game
I won't stoop to you level
Even if you slant the bevel
In your favour
And pick me apart
Layer by layer
I'm ready to work
To fight the demons that lurk
In the darkest corners of my soul
You vindictive little troll
You can beat me
But you won't defeat me

Little flower child
With a big attitude
Temper is mild
But my god she can be rude

Little flower child
With a heart of gold
She can be wild
Rarely doing what she's told

Little flower child
Impulsive and quick
She'll get you riled
With her cutthroat wit

Little flower child
With a field of dreams
She's been chasing them for a while
Downhill and upstreams

Little flower child
She won't stop
Please stay out of her way
Unless you'll help her reach the top

Mean girls, "You can't sit with us."

Me, "I don't want to sit with you."

I was always too much woman for you
I would slip between your fingers
Like grains of sand
I was always too much woman for you
I would float out of your reach
Like a balloon to a child
I was always too much woman for you
I would run you down
Like a bull in a ring
I was always too much woman for you
Like a tidal wave
I swept you away
I tried to be less of a woman for you
And that was the day I lost myself
