The moon vividly shined in her gloomy eyes
On her lips, a glimpse of a naughty scarlet tone
A bottle of whiskey in her hand, and a heart full of lies
A night to remember, some place away from home

She's a runaway girl, a junky to her curiosities
A blood-red rose in a field of white lilies

Blessed with regrets, eyes filled with tears
She lights a cigarette, to find some shelter in her own mess
Her mind, uneased, facing her deepest fears
The moon, her only friend left, witness of her distress

She's a broken girl, victim of poorly made choices
A lonely echo in her head, among the thousand other voices

But what can a floating rock ever do for this unholy work of art?
Moving seas and reshaping the earth
Wouldn't be enough to heal her heart
Yet alone make her forget, of what it's like being hurt

She was a runaway girl, a junky to her curiosities
A dark, fading rose in a field of white lilies
