When I was just a little girl
My momma used to tuck me into bed
and she'd read me a story
It always was about a Princess in distress
And how a guy would save her and end up with the glory
I'd lie in bed and think about the person that I want to be
Then one day I realized the fairy tale life wasn't for me
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side
Don't want to depend on no one else
I'd rather rescue myself
Someday I'm gonna find someone who wants my soul, heart, and mind
Who's not afraid to show that he loves me
Somebody who will understand I'm happy just the way I am
Don't need nobody taking care of me
I will be there for him just as strong as he,will be there for me
When I give myself then it has to got to be,an equal thing
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side
Don't want to depend on no one else
I'd rather rescue myself
I can slay, my own dragon
Ican dream
my own dreams
My knight in shining armour is me
So I'm gonna set me free
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side
Don't want to depend on no one else
I'd rather rescue myself
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side
Don't want to depend on no one else
I'd rather rescue myself
当我还是个小女孩
妈妈经常把我塞进被窝
是关于一个陷入困境的公主
然后王子如何荣耀地解救了她
我躺在床上想像我今后会怎样
有一天我意识到那样的童话生活并不是我想要的
我不想成为灰姑娘
坐在黑暗阴冷的地窖里给我讲故事
等待别人来给我自由
我不想成为白雪公主
等待英俊王子的到来
骑着白马来解救我
除非我们肩并肩地驰马而行
我不想依靠别人
我宁可拯救我自己
有一天我希望能找到一个喜欢我灵魂
心灵和思想的人
一个勇于向我表达爱意的人
一个理解我是一个生来快乐的人
不需要别人过多的照顾
我会坚强地支持他
就像他那样坚强地支持我
我们奉献自己给对方
一样的平等
我能制服自己的恶龙
我能实现自己的梦想
我那穿着闪耀盔甲的骑士就是我自己
不需要别人过多的照顾
我将自己解救自己
