Any Day

Even drowning I'll fight to the end
I'll fight gods, monsters and men
I'll do it all again and again
And I'll always make it through
There's always a way I'll find it who knew
I'd be the one slowly drowning in herself

Poseidon hears me scream
And the wails are harrowing
But please don't try to save me
Because I don't need any more knights in shining armour
Thinking I'm just a damsel in distress
No, this one's just depressed
And she's full of fear and yet full of hope
Begging for a hangman's rope
But knowing she'll save herself any day
I'll be the hero again and again

She screams damn the patriarchy
Damn your misogyny
Damn everything
I don't need validating
Don't need saving, just a little faith
More than enough in my own space and time
Shows I'll make it through tonight

Poseidon hears me scream
And the wails are harrowing
But please don't try to save me
Because I don't need any more knights in shining armour
Thinking I'm just a damsel in distress
No, this one's just depressed
And she's full of fear and yet full of hope
Begging for a hangman's rope
But knowing she'll save herself any day
I'll be the hero again and again

I'll leave you in my wake
I'm so ready to escape
This watery grave
The ocean's roaring in
And the noise is deafening
I can hear the siren sing

Poseidon hears me scream
And the wails are harrowing
But please don't try to save me
Because I don't need any more knights in shining armour
Thinking I'm just a damsel in distress
No, this one's just depressed
And she's full of fear and yet full of hope
Begging for a hangman's rope
But knowing she'll save herself any day
I'll be the hero again and again
