lyrics

I hope against hope that these
Winter shadows will be on their way soon
That they will toy with somebody else
Cuz I have had enough

I am dancing here on the balcony
The snowflakes are what keep me company
But I see you watching me
Through the frosted windowpane

My dress is vintage couture
And my eyes are edged in gold
I glitter and dazzle and I shine
Cuz that’s what a good girl does

You told me I need to be a little crazier
So here I am driving you mad
Be careful what you tell good girls to do
Cuz we will drive you mad if we want to

Ruby red lips you
Come in for a kiss
I know that you want me to leave with you
But I dismiss you like this

You told me I need to be
A little crazier
So here I am
Driving you mad
Be careful what you tell
Good girls to do
Cuz we will drive you mad
If we want to

I thought I’d done all that I could do
But it wasn’t enough ‘til I walked out the door
Be careful when you break a good girl’s heart
Cuz it is only the start of the madness

In a tizzy, feeling dizzy
From your selfish absorptions
It’s unhealthy, unencouraged
Your relationship contortions

Your dark eyes, dark smile
Dark way of getting what you want
Everything I was sure of
You made me doubt
Oh all that time
You made me pout like

A little girl, little girl, little girl worth nothing
But then I put my hair real loose, now look at me I’m stuntin’
You thought I’d be your marionette that you could twist around
But then I picked myself up and found my sound

I found my sound, found my voice (My voice)
And being used is nothing but a choice

It’s unnatural, unnatural
The way you play your game
Now I got my laces tied
I’m gonna put you to shame

You couldn’t be more wrong, you couldn’t be more wrong
I’m ten times as strong, ten times as strong
I’m so through falling for all your bullshit voodoo
I’m gonna make you want me like you made me want you

You told me I need to be a little crazier
So I am still too dull, still too dull for you
Be careful what you tell good girls to do
Cuz we will drive you loco if we want to

And I do
