Pure As The Driven Snow - from The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes

Everyone's born as clean as a whistle
As fresh as a daisy
And not a bit crazy
Staying that way's a hard row for hoeing
As rough as a briar
Like walking through fire

This world, it's dark
This world, it's scary
I've taken some hits, so
No wonder I'm wary
It's why I
Need you
You're as pure as the driven snow

Everyone wants to be like a hero
The cake with the cream, or the doer not dreamer
Doing's hard work, but it takes some to change things
Like goat's milk to butter
Like ice blocks to water

This world goes blind
When children are dying
I turn into dust, but
You never stop trying
It's why I
Love you
You're as pure as the driven snow

Cold and clean
Swirling over my skin
You cloak me
You soak right in
Down to my heart

Everyone thinks they know all about me
They slap me with labels and spit out their fables
You came along and you knew it was lying
You saw the ideal me
And yes, that's the real me

This world, it's cruel
With troubles aplenty
You asked for a reason
I've got three and twenty
For why I
Trust you
You're as pure as the driven snow

It's why I
Trust you
You're as pure as the driven snow
