(One, two, one, two, three, four) Hand on the throttle Thought I caught lightning in a bottle Oh, but it's gone again And it was written I got cursed like Eve got bitten Oh, was it punishment? Pad around when I get home I guess a lesser woman would've lost hope A greater woman wouldn't beg But I looked to the sky and said Please, I've been on my knees Change the prophecy Don't want money Just someone who wants my company Let it once be me Who do I have to speak to About if they can redo the prophecy? Cards on the table Mine play out like fools in a fable Oh, it was sinking in (sinking in, oh) Slow is the quicksand Poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand Oh, still I dream of him Please, I've been on my knees Change the prophecy Don't want money Just someone who wants my company Let it once be me Who do I have to speak to About if they can redo the prophecy? And I sound like an infant Feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen A greater woman stays cool But I howl like a wolf at the moon And I look unstable Gathered with a coven 'round a sorceress' table A greater woman has faith But even statues crumble if they're made to wait I'm so afraid I sealed my fate No sign of soulmates I'm just a paperweight in shades of greige Spending my last coin so someone will tell me it'll be okay Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Please, I've been on my knees Change the prophecy Don't want money Just someone who wants my company Let it once be me Who do I have to speak to About if they can redo the prophecy? Who do I have to speak to To change the prophecy? Hand on the throttle Thought I caught lightning in a bottle Oh, but it's gone again Pad around when I get home I guess a lesser woman would've lost hope A greater woman wouldn't beg (please) But I looked to the sky and said
