Bad Woman

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

If anger makes you a bad woman

Why does the fire feel like home

You hold it in till it cuts your bones

But when you speak

Your heart breaks free

Bad woman

Bad woman

They say you're no good when you scream

Bad woman bad woman

But the truth tastes sweet like a candy treat

Words locked tight behind your teeth

Each silence carving its own grief

The mirror cracks when you turn away

[Prechorus]

But when you shout

The shadows drown

Bad woman bad woman

They say you're no good when you fight

Bad woman bad woman

But your rage is your light

Bad woman

This are lyrics to a song I wrote. You can listen to it at: https://youtu.be/nG-kReqt4PY?si=pRTycXXnDQDupZaX
