Lyrics[]
Golden girl dressed in ice
A heart as dark as night
You got me to dim my light
No more
I really think I bought your lies
Did anything to keep you mine
You kept me hooked on your line
No more
Somewhere along the way I lost my might
I had to walk a hundred thousand miles
I'm not afraid to set it all on fire
I won't fall again, I'll be my own lighter
Nothing can burn me now
I'll be my own lighter
I feel a spark inside me
I don't need saving
No way, no way
'Cause I'm my own, I'm my own lighter
I'm tired of a million tries
To fight, the signs
And when everybody tried to tell me
I should've known that it was timе to break free
Your reigns that kept mе at your mercy
I'll burn them to the ground
No more, no more
Ignite the fire
Somewhere along the way I lost my might
I had to walk a hundred thousand miles
I'm not afraid to set it all on fire
I won't fall again, I'll be my own lighter
Nothing can burn me now
I'll be my own lighter
I feel a spark inside me
I don't need saving
No way, no way
'Cause I'm my own, I'm my own lighter
Silence fills the room
And I've taken off my jewels
I wish none of this was true
But there's a fire growing too-
Yeah!
Nothing can burn me now
I'll be my own lighter
I feel a spark inside me
I don't need saving
No way, no way
'Cause I'm my own, I'm my own lighter
Nothing can burn me down
I'm my own, I'm my own lighter
