Dark Horse from Explosion Girl by Pyrophoria

You used words to make me small
You lied to make yourself seem tall
You saw me as a docile doll
You made me get down and crawl

I'd fight back but they said I'd lose
I'm just a girl and this is just a ruse
I'm just a girl in the wrong shoes
I heard a tick but they couldn't defuse

I gave you the fuel for your gaslight
You gave me the fuel to ignite
I didn't bring a knife to a gunfight
You live and learn in hindsight

I'd fight back but they said I'd lose
I'm just a girl and this is just a ruse
I'm just a girl in the wrong shoes
I heard a tick but they couldn't defuse

You say this time it's all in my head
Oh but grandmother! The little girl said
Recently I've seen a lot of red
I'll grind your bones to make bread
I BROUGHT A GUN after what you said
The self-righteous coward fled
In life, this is how you get ahead
