As the days start and end
And it happens again
You try to turn the page
But everything's the same
When you look out the window,
The time drifts out as the silence comes through
It's somehow the same, but it hurts like brand new
Only you know how lonely you've been
But you need to take a deep breath in
Hold your breath, Teenage Princess
Hold your breath when the nights get restless
Hold your breath, Teenage Princess, and keep your heart unswayed
Hold your breath, Prince Charming is just a little delayed
He's got dragons to fight and castles to roam
But we've all got battles all our own
Just imagine the day when he'll meet you there
I can't really say when and I hardly know where
But the battles he's facing
And the fate that he's chasing
Ends with you right by his side
But just because he's running late
Doesn't mean he isn't worth the wait
Hold your breath, Teenage Princess
Hold your breath when the nights get restless
Hold your breath, Teenage Princess, and keep your heart unswayed
Hold your breath, Prince Charming is just a little delayed
And every now and then, it all falls apart
Every now and then, the wrong one takes your heart
You're kissing frogs that never turn to princes
You're wondering what the point of this all is
Your crown's fallen down and you're thinkin' this is it forevermore
Someday, I'm telling you, your lonely days will follow you nevermore
I know the empty days sitting in your castle bring you down,
But hold your breath, princess, and pick up your crown.
Hold your breath, Teenage Princess
Hold your breath when the nights get restless
Hold your breath, Teenage Princess, and keep your heart unswayed
Hold your breath, Prince Charming is just a little delayed

Songs I Wrote
PoetryHere are some songs I wrote. The ones that end in (Old Song) are ones I wrote when I was 14. They're not all that good, but I thought it'd be cool to have my old songs here alongside my new ones. I think it shows how much I've changed and improved...
