Little black dress

Okay I can see it now it´s all the same thing
Just different wrapping around it
No need to soften your words, they´re still gonna hurt
So don´t pull punches
I tried to be everything you´d ever want
And sometimes I even stood on my heart and stomped
Now I´m finally alone and dressed for the show
But going nowhere
They don´t need to see me crying
I´ll get my little black dress on
And if I put on my favorite song
I´m gonna dance until you´re all gone
I´ll get my little black dress on
You came lifted me up but then you dropped a hurricane
Now I´m fighting to find the ground again, to steady my feet
Get up off my knees and just remember
That I am more than just somebody´s puppet
I can find the cord and then I´ll cut it
I stand a pretty good chance to dust myself off and dance
I´ll get my little black dress on
And if I put on my favorite song
I´m gonna dance until you´re all gone
I´ll get my little black dress on
I got my little black dress on
And if I tell myself that nothing´s wrong
This doesn´t have to be a sad song
Not with my little black dress on
It´s time to connect the dots and draw a different picture up
And paint it with the colors of everything I ever was
Return to the scene of the crime, the day I let the music die
And rewrite the final lines cause this time I
I´ll get my little black dress on
And if I put on my favorite song
I´m gonna dance until you´re all gone
I´ll get my little black dress on
I got my little black dress on
And if I tell myself that nothing´s wrong
This doesn´t have to be a sad song
Not with my little black dress on
Just different wrapping around it
No need to soften your words, they´re still gonna hurt
So don´t pull punches
I tried to be everything you´d ever want
And sometimes I even stood on my heart and stomped
Now I´m finally alone and dressed for the show
But going nowhere
They don´t need to see me crying
I´ll get my little black dress on
And if I put on my favorite song
I´m gonna dance until you´re all gone
I´ll get my little black dress on
You came lifted me up but then you dropped a hurricane
Now I´m fighting to find the ground again, to steady my feet
