Child, our daughter Sit while we talk awhile You’ve done no misdeed Still they’ll put your life on trial
Born like your family Far from any state of grace You’re as perfect as the wind and sky But they’ll treat like you’re out of place
This world is cold The power’s with those who would judge and control But we have a chance to make it right for you This is what you’ll do
Show them how you smile It’s only for a while Take what you need Leave them to bleed Let them know bitter While your revenge is sweet
Keep the secret Pretending you’re just like them Live there like a princess In the kingdom of selfish men
Play their game now Do what it takes to win Steal it back all they keep from you They refuse to look beyond your skin
And as you grow You’ll gain from their knowledge but your heart will know When the time is right to end the lie You’ll know what to do When the charade is through
Show them how you smile It’s only for a while Take what you need Leave them to bleed Let them know bitter While your revenge is sweet
You might think that maybe they’re changing You’ll pray that their hatred is waning That’s when it hurts most to find The story unfolds And their cruelty’s exposed You’ll be glad you’re not their kind
Show them how you smile It’s only for a while Take what you need Leave them to bleed Let them know bitter While your revenge is sweetTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
