lyrics

Once upon a time you wanted to get close to
The kind of girl with a damaged past
In a fairytale darker than a slasher
She dealt with things, moved a little too fast
And she stole your eyes
You wanted to get next to her
But she’s trapped inside
And she’s got a hex on her

Heidi lives in a castle
Her long red hair you’ll never hold onto
Heidi’s trapped in a tower
She’s way up there, and she doesn’t want you

So you sat there, sadder than a puppet
Without a hand to guide it along
I came around and I saw you on the ground
I picked you up and asked you, “what’s wrong?”
And you said, “I just
Wanted to get next to her”
You’re in like and lust
And she’s got a hex on her

Heidi lives in a castle
Her long red hair you’ll never hold onto
Heidi’s trapped in a tower
She’s way up there, and she doesn’t want you
Heidi’s world is at battle
And you don’t care
But, oh, you think you do
Heidi’s so much to handle
She’s way up there, and she doesn’t want you

So run away
But you stand there, crying at her chamber door
Away, but you’re still stuck on wanting more
Oh, run away
To the girl who’s been there every time
But still, you stay stuck on Heidi
When you should be mine

Heidi lives in a castle
Her long red hair you’ll never hold onto
Heidi’s trapped in a tower
She’s way up there, and she doesn’t want you
Heidi’s world is at battle
And you don’t care
But, oh, you think you do
Heidi’s so much to handle
She’s way up there, and she doesn’t want you

EJ Carey Boston, Massachusetts

If you took the angst ridden anthems of the 2000s and combined them with the truth bearing storytelling of country music, you’d find yourself listening to EJ Carey. EJ’s blend of pop rock packs an emotional punch by reintroducing the sounds of her teen years to the age of Spotify under the guise of confessional plot-driven songwriting.
EJ's new EP “Outlier” is available everywhere now. ... more
