leorinda - Damsel in Distress Lyrics

Don't fool yourself into thinking your assumptions are real
What you say might be true to yourself
But it's far from what I feel
You only hear what you want to hear
Is that how you've learned to heal?
'Til you face it all and be real with yourself
Save those crocodile tears

I'm done, I'm done feeling this way
I hope you know that things have changed
Don't think that I'm wasting any of my time
Thinking 'bout what we could be

If you're tryna make a point
You've gotta prove it to yourself first
'Cause any thought of you
Lifted from my mind like a damn curse
Who said I need your pity?
Who said that I needed your words?
I'm not a damsel in distress
And you're not my savior

It was hard to breathe
Every little step that I took was hard for me
What you say and do still doesn't matter
It's not about you
When I was lost in the time you were stuck in my mind
I kept it all at bay
So don't act like I needed you
To pick up the broken pieces
'Cause you're not the one I had to depend on
You're not in control of me

If you're tryna make a point
You've gotta prove it to yourself first
'Cause any thought of you
Lifted from my mind like a damn curse
Who said I need your pity?
Who said that I needed your words?
I'm not a damsel in distress
And you're not my savior
