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
