 A New Woman

YOUR SPOTLIGHT



I didn't like the idea of living under your skin
How would i breathe when I'm sucked too deep in
My largest organ is my skin
How would i perform perspiration  
When I'll plead insanity wanting to break free of desperation
You can't keep me under your spotlight
That's no way to live a life of my own when each and everyday I'll have to fight
Trying to break free
Hating the idea of you and me
I had to leave it all behind
I didn't want to marry for me to constantly be wined an dined
Underneath one roof with recycled air
That just isn't fair
How could you dare
To make your demands from the moment you heard of me
From you i wanted to flee
As soon as i heard stay beneath four walls
No more me, myself and I only Me and the halls
Of a home i may not even like
I hate riding a bike
I'd do it to get away from you
I tried to imagine, but the idea of being inside your black hole i can't escape made me polish the shoe
The shoe i used to walk away in
So i threw the wedding plans in the bin
Its no wonder your mom keeps coming back
I said i ain't ready to pack
I'm not a slave
I'm meant to be a wife and I'm sure you may treat me right, but without my space its good bye i wave
