Princess Saves the Prince
A knight in shining armour, that's covered in dents
Scars and bruises on his skin from a painful past
I know this may be a lot to ask
But can you be the princess who saves the Prince?
I come from a broken home
Trying to repair myself, I thought the hope was gone
Bipolar, can you deal with the emotions shown?
I couldn't right all my mistakes, so I wrote my wrongs
I'm loyal and have no issue with being faithful
But all I see is betrayal
So I have trust issues
Which is something I need to discuss with you
Tattoos covering my scars from my Self-harming days
You'll hear stories about how I was always out charming babes
They're true, I had so much pain and heartbreak to stomach
So I was sleeping around for an escape and comfort
But I've changed my ways, I need something that's real
You have to bleed, before you heal
I'm trying to open up, even though it's hard for me to show
I just need you to understand my scars so I can work on getting them to go
I've got a good heart but i'm hard work
I write a lot and put my art first
Give me your all and I'll repay it with interest
Can you understand why the prince needs saving by the princess?
A knight in shining armour, that's covered in dents
Scars and bruises on his skin from a painful past
I know this may be a lot to ask
But can you be the princess who saves the Prince?
