Heathen

They threw the word like a stone. I tried it on, and it fit like a crown. That's the whole trick — everything they curse you with turns into a blessing the day you stop flinching.

She just does what she wants Don't care if you don't like it She just does what she wants Don't care if you don't like it Call her a heathen She answers to it now You called it a weakness It's how she found her power Said she was Godless And that's your problem how Said she was fallen So why you looking down She don't mind it when they talk Let them stare while she walks And she just says Call me a heathen I answer to it now Say I'm a heathen I'm wearin' it like a crown And I don't mind it when they talk Let them stare while I walk And I just say Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Say she's a hot mess She says she's on fire Say she's a problem She says At least I'm mine And all of your curses Only bless me now Said she was fallen So why you looking down She don't mind it when they talk Let them stare while she walks And she just says Call me a heathen I answer to it now Say I'm a heathen I'm wearin' it like a crown And I don't mind it when they talk Let them stare while I walk And I just say Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Say she's a hot mess She says she's on fire Say she's a problem She says At least I'm mine And all of your curses Only bless me now Said she was fallen So why you looking down She don't mind it when they talk Let them stare while she walks And she just says Call me a heathen I answer to it now Say I'm a heathen I'm wearin' it like a crown And I don't mind it when they talk Let them stare while I walk And I just say Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Call me a heathen She just does what she wants Don't care if you don't like it Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Call me a heathen Call me a heathen She just does what she wants Don't care if you don't like it
