Princess



Hide your eyes princess; the world can see your soul
Wipe down your tears; you still have a kingdom to run
I know it hurts princess, but there is still good in the world
Fight off the pain princess; you are the reason we still believe
Tone down a bit princess, the angels can feel your wrath
Make us believe in better princess; we have all lost so much
Make us hope again princess; the world has been taken from us
Tell us it is okay to be sad, it is the only thing we know
Tell us not to give up; your gratitude exceeds the good in the world
Don’t give up on us princess; your subjects look up to you
I have seen the turmoil; houses and men being burned to the ground
I have heard the rumors of little girls being cruelly assaulted
I have seen the pain of a mother losing her only child
I have seen a world where women offer more go unappreciated
You are the only hope princess, keep going, and the world will follow
How the world silences with your mere walk of grace
How the heavens mutter when you utter words full of hope
How the strong crumble when your divine smile quenches evil
Keep on leading us princess; the world might be a better place
Like how the royal families have deserted the weak in society
Like how love has become a tool of mere extortion
Like how men falter at the slightest sight of beauty
Like how simple things define the world
Drive us from this derive of wanting more from little or none
Don’t give up now, because you are still the strength that shines
The world has knocked you down, but you still survived
You thought you couldn’t make it, but you still live on
The ones who hurt you left you for the dead but you walked
The chains that bound you ultimately made you strong
Help us fight our plights princess, for you are special
