Persephone
Verse 1
No one really sees me in this skin
It??™s hard to stay here
No one really understands this pain
It??™s hard to make clear
Cause I??™m not perfect
Though you see me as such
But I can shatter
That image with a touch
Chorus
I am Persephone
You cannot handle me
I am
Your worst nightmare
Your best friend
And you will follow me
You??™ll hear me beckoning
For you
To see me for
What I am
Verse 2
It??™s not an easy life to walk this road
I hope you??™ll stand by
And I don??™t always do what I??™m told
Oh but I can fly
Cause I??™m not earthbound
I??™m just waiting for wings
I??™m gonna shed skin
And break free of these strings
Bridge
Will you be my Hades
Will you be my Zeus
I??™m down on my knees
Begging for the truth
I shouldn??™t understand this
It shouldn??™t be this way
But while I??™m empty handed
I swear to be your slave
Chorus
I am Persephone
You cannot handle me
I am
Your worst nightmare
Your best friend
And you will follow me
You??™ll hear me beckoning
For you
To see me for
What I am
