Little Victories

Climbed the gate
There’re many doors to break
Dragons to slay
And roads to pave

Forged a sword
of blood that I spilt
Rubies on the hilt
That I can’t afford

Merciless, the world wants more
Even when I’m torn
If only life were a fairytale
Where heroines prevail

CHORUS:
I don’t know if I am trying hard enough
I don’t know if time will wait for me to
keep up
I may not win this war
But at the least
I’d settle for a little
victory
Little Victory

I’ll wear a gown
I found on the street
See if they’ll believe
I’m their royal queen

I’ll make magic
From misery unseen
Paint a masterpiece
with a tally stick

Ruthlessly, the crowds all roar
Off with her head
They didn’t see me slip away
I’ll be back for more

Little Victories
Small steps at a time
Little Victories
To the finish line
Little Victories…
