Ain't Heaven For a Girl Like Me 歌詞

They said, be soft, be pure, be still Cross your legs, don't chase the thrill Wear the white, don't ask for more But I kick the halo out the door I lit candles with my rage Turned their scriptures into flame I was never yours to name And I ain't here to play that game Ain't no heaven for girls like me Just back roads, bruises, and prophecy Built a throne on our silent sea But I brought matches and now I bleed Ain't no heaven for girls like me Just black lines, ghosts, and blistered knees You made your hell and gave us the key So I broke the lock, then I set me free They said, repent and hold your shame But I sang louder when they said my name I ain't your rib, I ain't your bride I'm the sin you couldn't hide I wear hexes like perfume I plant curses under moons I don't break, I bloom From every cage, you made a tomb Ain't no heaven for girls like me Just dirt roads and heresy You preached love, then let us bleed But I rose up, wicked and free No heaven for girls like me We don't kneel, we don't agree You want saints? Well baby, we're the breeze Your heaven smells like bleach and fear I'd rather riot than worship here Ain't no heaven for girls like me Just backroads, bruises, and prophecy You built a throne on our silent sea But I brought matches and now I bleed Ain't no heaven for girls like me Just bloodlines, ghosts, and blistered knees But hell looks good when you're finally free We light the dark and we don't flee
