Normal Shoes
Around in circles I follow
like a dog after it's tail
Chasing after anything I can grasp with my fingers.
Sometimes it's the truth that makes things hard to swallow
I want only to please, and to always be enough
Like we are two princesses in a fairytale-
in the deepest of love.
But I know that we can't be that, no matter how much I want it to.
I'll never fit those glass slippers, I'll never be able to sing
I'm just a foolish girl in normal shoes.
