Текст песни Strong Girl - NIKI

Gazing out the windows of the bus
Watching Maryland pass by
There was sky, and where there wasn't
There was the thought of us
Maryland passed, and so did I

Soft like wax, sharp as an axe
Both can't be true in my world
New indentations cover my back
Goddamn it, I'm at least somebody's strong girl
Mm, aren't I?

You surprised me on the road, I didn't catch
Your distinct footfalls up the stage
I'll admit that made the tour less of a drag
And like a child, or a fool, I hoped you'd stay

Revolving doors spit me out onto the street
Sling my bags over my shoulder and cry
Press my belly, pull the tab and just maybe
I'll flash my teeth, the ache's the best index for drive
In my mother's words
"Just drag your heels and don't you draw a line, be strong, girl"
Strong girl

It's to the death, or less than nothing
I'm a pendulum, I don't know where I'll land
I just know that I can swing it, I'll always swing it

Cause Goddamn it, fuck if I'm not everybody's strong girl, mm
Ooh, strong girl
Who am I if I can't be everybody's strong girl?
Strong girl
Aren't I?
