I’ll stay in the tower, mother;
If it means your love is true
If it means you’ll be there for me
And I’ll be there for you.
I’ll let you use my magic
If you love it with my darkness
Believe in my dreams, mother,
And your beliefs I’ll harness.
Bring me a lantern, mother,
To match the light within me
I’ll keep it burning forever
Inside the tower, I shall be free.
I’ll spend my life in my room,
Waste away all hours alone
If you promise me one thing, that,
At the end of the day you’ll come home.
Bring me new paint, mother,
And I shall add color to our lives
I’ll always be your flower
If you hide away the knives
If you listen to me ramble on,
And if you watch me paint
I’ll be your little princess forever,
And right here I’ll stay.
