Persephone

(album: Manic Pixie Dream Girl - 2017)

GO!

My dear I feel you're quite confused
You lie in my ears
Claim you never felt this before
Feeding me phrases from your arsenal
Singing fake promises, your fingers on the door
Well my dear I'm taking back all I said
Tripping over my thoughts again

Cursing you down, barely alive
I'll learn to breathe
I will survive
Cause I am the goddess
And you are the broken bloody mess

Cursing you down, barely alive
I'll learn to breathe
I will survive
Cause I am the goddess
And you are the broken bloody mess

You say you were never unfaithful to me
A statement I'll never believe
Trying to overthrow my diamond throne
Afraid of being truly alone
I hope the weight of the ocean
Crushes you down below
Letting you know how much you hurt me
Making your crimes to me known

Cursing you down, barely alive
I'll learn to breathe
I will survive
Cause I am the goddess
And you are the broken bloody mess

Cursing you down, barely alive
I'll learn to breathe
I will survive
Cause I am the goddess
And you are the broken bloody mess

From Olympus I wear my crown
From the kraken you will drown
There seems to be confusion between
Who here is the royalty
Aphrodite's crying and Phanes is dying
Hades will know your name
Hades will know your name
I'm fucking royalty
You're the broken bloody mess
Hades will know your name

Cursing you down, barely alive
I'll learn to breathe
I will survive
Cause I am the goddess
And you are the broken bloody mess

Cursing you down, barely alive
I'll learn to breathe
I will survive
Cause I am the goddess
And you are the broken bloody mess
