Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Silver crib in a vaulted room They checked my hands for a holy bloom Mama’s ring All shine Went cold [low vocal register] “She’s empty ” whispered in the gold Carried out past marble saints Past painted suns and their perfect grace Left in the frost where the banners end Just a nameless girl Not a kingdom’s friend [Chorus] I was born without their shining favor Born without the shadow they feared No halo No hunger for power Just scars where they kept their mirrors near Now I stand where the banners used to glimmer Crown of smoke In the ruin I sing I was the rejected little princess I came back and burned the kingdom clean [Verse 2] Raised by crows on the outer farms Mud on my face Rope on my arms Learned how to pray to the falling rain How to stitch my hurt into someone else’s name Heard the stories in the tavern glow Of a “blessed” court built on broken throats They toasted kings with stolen wine While my cradle rotted in the pines [Chorus] [Bridge] [whispered vocals] Do you see me now Mother? Your miracle mistake I don’t glow I don’t fade I just break what you make No white fire No black spell Just a match and an open door to your hell Your stained-glass saints start to crack and run When a faithless daughter becomes the flame instead of the sun [Chorus]
