Lyrics
[Intro]
[Verse]
You better wake up now Cinderella
Your not living in a fairy tale
Your no longer livin in a castle
Your living in the county jail
You've been arrested for a few things
that they say you've done wrong
Your in here now paying the price
its where you belong
Chorus
You won't need a fancy gown in here
you won't find no magic wands
Your prince can only save you now
by getting you out on bond
You never dreamed it would go down like this
who would have thought
Cinderella would be a con
Verse 2
In the shadows of the night, dreams fade away,
Once a shining star, now lost in dismay.
With broken glass slippers and a heart full of scars,
Trading wishes for whispers beneath these cold bars.
Chorus
You won't need a fancy gown in here
you won't find no magic wands
Your prince can only save you now
by getting you out on bond
You never dreamed it would go down like this
But Never thought Cinderella would be a con
1:37
Bridge:
A flicker of hope, like a candle's soft glow,
Can I find my way back? Can I learn to let go?
With every heartbeat, I fight to be free,
Cinderella's not lost; she's still finding me.
