Cinderella

Astonishing

Utterly divine

Exhilarating

Preciously sublime

The way you speak, it makes me want to cry

Velvet jacket lined with satin resting on your thigh

As for my overtures and my painted-on, two-dimensional scenery

And my taste for vaudevillian delivery

The way you turn your chest on me

I'm embarrassed to be clever when you're honest

You make me want to be ready

I feel different now than I did before

I can see how my power

Only was my fear of betrayal

In your eyes, I am naked

Screaming like a tornado in the dark

I can see us laying face to face

As St. Helens is underneath the stars

And I notice you are gentle

By the way your posture is so elegant

And I notice you are noble, you are kind

Or at least entertained by your time sitting here with me

Okay, I'll share this

When I was five, I remember clearly

My want to have a Cinderella birthday party

And when the moment came and I changed my mind

I was quiet, alone, and devastated

You make me want to be ready

I feel different now than I did before

I can see how my power

Only was my fear of betrayal

In your eyes, I am naked

Screaming like a tornado in the dark

I can see us laying face to face

As St. Helens is underneath the stars

Just know I've cleared the way

Just know I won't leave as I came

Just know I'll keep the mirror you gave

Just know I won't leave as I came

I won't leave as I came

I won't leave as I came

You make me want to be ready

I feel different now than I did before

I can see how my power

Only was my fear of betrayal

In your eyes, I am naked

Screaming like a tornado in the dark

I can see us laying face to face

As St. Helens is underneath the stars

Just know I've cleared the way

Just know I won't leave as I came
