Ur A Wmn Now Lyrics - Smash The Control Machine - Otep

Stars litter the sky 

The moon is shining high 

This soft September night 

Two lovers creep out of sight 

A maiden dressed in white with copper hair 

Restless for adventure, she don't care 

That the wolf is in the skies, she's been ensnared 

He got the devil in his eyes and stylish flare 

He shoves her to the ground 

Her soul begins to drown 

A sky full of eyes where the stars should be 

A sky full of eyes watching silently 

You're a woman now 

You've become a woman now 

The weight of the cradle has broken the bough 

You've become a woman now 

Mama woke me up at dawn 

She helped me get my best dress on 

She braided flowers in my hair 

So sweet was the summer air 

I'm to meet my groom down by the sea 

A perfect stranger to correct me 

The judges arrive in pairs of three 

Don't be scared, just relax and breathe 

'Cause good girls hold real still 

Surrender your free will 

They cracked the crown to pluck the pearl 

Here on the jagged edge of the world 

You're a woman now 

You've become a woman now 

The weight of the cradle has broken the bough 

You've become a woman now 

Standing on the welfare line 

My daughter clinging to my side 

I see the faith in her eyes 

I whisper baby we will be just fine 

I'll get a good job and find a new place 

And work real hard and we'll make our escape 

I promise you I'll get us through 

Together we will bloom 

You're a woman now 

You've become a woman now 

The weight of the cradle has broken the bough 

You've become a woman now 

You're a woman now 

You've become a woman now 

You're a woman now 

You've become a woman now
