De Diva - Bettie Serveert

Evil thoughts & blue minds.

Leave the cynics all far behind.

If life is good, well, then it’s OK.

Don’t try to fix a thing that isn’t broke.

Hiding in the basement,

try to block my mind.

How can people still believe

in a world that isn’t kind?

Maybe I don’t fit too well,

but don’t throw it in my face…

You know me, I’m a walking inconsistency.

I’m so hard to please,

I look twice at anything that’s placed in front of me.

That’s why it’s hard to understand

how you can take me the way I am and not even change my attitude,

but I’ll try to change, if you want me to.

De Diva, De Diva in denial;

watch me going down in style.

You know me, well, at least you’re spending time with me.

I seem so carefree,

but I’m chained, restrained, by all those memories.

Some say that I’m swell at first,

then one day they turn around & curse

and treat me like I don’t belong

but somehow, that just made me strong.

And I push too hard, I push too soon,

and I live it out on a paper moon.

Then you take me in, when I’ve had enough.

Ain’t that what they call love?

Will you take me in, when I’ve had enough.
