[ARIEL]
Look at the sun, and the sky, and the sand, and the sea behind me
Look at me, suddenly, I am on land, and I'm free, don't mind me
As I climb for the first time, jump for the first time
Trying to stand, but this gravity's pulling me down
Look, it's a fire, it's warm, and it glows, and it lights this chamber
Let me admire it, ow! Get too close and it bites, I came too
Close for the first time, burned for the first time
Everything's clearer and brighter and hotter
But now that I'm here like a fish out of water
I'm trying to stand, but this gravity's pulling me down
Are we only food for slaughter
Is this life on land?
Well, you were lonely underwater
Come on, Ariel, time to stand!
Squeeze in the shoes and the corset, it's tight
And the seams are bursting
Some women choose this, I guess it's alright
Are my dreams adjusting?
As I wait for the first time
Here for the first time
Now for the first time
He's coming through those doors
Up the stairs
From the shore
From that moment
And he'll smile
Like he knows
When I say—
Realize the price that you paid with your voice
As he turns from you
Those sacrifices you made were a choice
That you can't undo
Lost for the first time
Scared for the first time
Gravity feels like an undertow pulling me down
