Taylor Castro - Muse With A Dagger (Official Music Video)
Muse with a Dagger can be seen from many different angles depending on the listeners subjective point of view. For me, it’s a song about the divisions society forces us to have with those who aren’t like us told allegorically through a relationship between two individuals. The pair forms an unexpected bond, but is torn apart due to the polarized communities they come from. This is not Romeo and Juliet, though, because the characters have genuine loyalty to their people and are frustrated by the unwanted connection. When natural conflict occurs between the two, they rage against the other’s community. It’s all in vein, however, because both of them will always be an entity separate from what they stand with. In a rage, one can destroy the world of the other but never quite bring themselves to destroy the other. This is because we are not defined by what we associate with. We are defined solely by the corners of our inner selves that no one can quite fit into or even grasp. - Taylor Castro

Lyrics:
I was team green, you were red
Both of the head type
Underestimated
And haunted by the lime light
Hated you at first sight
You’re everything I don’t like
Don’t really get
How we got where we’re are
But
All of those late night
Star-crossed caused fights
I’m still for you
Why am I still for you?
And all of those times
When I turned on a blind eye
I still see you for you
I still see you
But am I a fool for the fire
Or a girl with desire?
Going to war with cupid’s arrow
Like you’re a kingdom to conquer
Be your muse with a dagger
Make a heartbreak seem as fair
As I look with the wind in my hair
You’re making fun of my people
Pretend I don’t hear you
Cause I won’t forgive myself
For fueling or burning you
And all of those countless
Hours spend wasted
Caring if
You cared enough
And all of those hopeless romantics
You enslaved without
A second thought
Made me no fool for the fire
But a girl with desire
Going to war with cupid’s arrow
You’re a kingdom to conquer
Be your muse with a dagger
Make a heartbreak seem as fair
As I look with the wind in my hair
Don’t take all my glory
And explain it to me
You’re making a madman
Out of every woman
I hate how I need you
To feel how I want to
I hate how I’ll apologize
For stealing back the throne that was mine
Cause you’re no fool for the fire
But a man with desire
You went war with cupid’s arrow
Like I was a kingdom to conquer
Pray to God I’ve got a dagger
You made a heartbreak seem as fair
As you look with the wind in your hair
