THE DAMSEL Lyrics

Once upon a time, in the heart of the city

There lived a young princess, who dreamed of the day

Her prince would arrive, and serve as her hero

Who'd slaughter the dragon, and whisk her away

Her life filled with struggles, her mind was a refuge

Imagining stories, to help her survive

Ashamed of her choices, but too tired to change them

Losing all hope, that her prince would arrive

She played the damsel, to her weakness the villain

The tracks she was tied to, held her so tight

She hoped that that train, would swiftly release her

Knowing no hero, could save her that night

Watching old movies, was her favorite distraction

Immersed in the story, she'd often pretend

That she was the young girl, in perilous danger

Saved by the hero, who shows up in the end

She played the damsel, to her weakness the villain

The tracks she was tied to, held her so tight

She hoped that that train, would swiftly release her

Knowing no hero, could save her that night

Closing her eyes, she prayed to the father

Hoping that he could forgive what she'd done

Her weakness had brought her, to this situation

She knew in her heart, the devil had won

She played the damsel, to her weakness the villain

The tracks she was tied to, held her so tight

She hoped that that train, would swiftly release her

Knowing no hero, could save her that night

She played the damsel, to her weakness the villain

The tracks she was tied to, held her so tight

She hoped that that train, would swiftly release her

Knowing no hero, could save her that night

Knowing no hero, could save her that night
