Bella Hardy - Sleeping Beauty Lyrics
Ghosts by my bed I see when I'm wakingAnd I sigh to my sister, I'd rather be sleepingLast night I dived in the deep blue sea with a man that loved meWhy couldn't I stay Sleeping Beauty?In the broad light of day how the ugly shows in meWith my soft eyes closed I was his perfectionBut here I stand before you now with my eyes wide openThe day has turned sour and it's only 10.30I'm flighty and I'm lusty, and as she said, hell's murkyWe go out and we live and we roam, and then we bring the worst of ourselves home againWars, they are lost before they're begunFor battles, they never go to planI'm a disappointment from the moment I rise to the moment I close my eyesBut here I stand before you now with my eyes wide openBeware those who want their women to be roses without thornsFor life's as much in kisses as it is in blood and gritLook like the innocent flower, but be the serpent under it
