I'm not a damsel in distress.
No Cinderella here.
Just a normal girl.
I don't need rescuing
From a dragon in disguise.
I don't need saving
From a wolf in sheep's clothing.
I can rescue myself
From the fires of Hades.
I can save myself
From the evils of men.
I'm not Snow White
With a wicked step-mom.
I don't need saving
From the poison of dreams.
There's no such thing
As a Sleeping Beauty.
Don't fight through broken thorns
Just to wake me with a kiss.
Don't beg good fairies to lift me
From the dark abyss.
If I get in too deep
Don't come in after me.
'Cos then I'd have to save you too.
I'm not a damsel in distress.
I'd rather rescue myself.
