What Happened To Maggie? (Prelude)

Hey, I wanna get something straight
If nobody told you today
"You don't have to toughen up, smile and fake it"
No, Rome wasn't build in a day
So all of the words you replay
And love that you wish he'd proclaim
And letters you write for your friend to deliver
Will make you just laugh someday

You'll wake up, yeah, welcome to real life
'Cause sometimes existing, it feels like
You're the only one in the room, and
Turns out that's just being a woman

Walk down the yellow brick road
Sing 'til the shower gets cold
You'll learn from thе pain and learn to let go so
When thеy ask me, "what happened to Maggie?"
I'll tell them the truth when each chapter ends
The new one still holds on to you

Hey, I wanna get something straight
If somebody told you it's lame to feel all your feelings
I hope that you'll hear when I say
"I don't consider myself to be broken
Took all the trauma, it cracked me wide open
'Cause after all, villains are made from the deepest emotions"
