walking all alone on the sidewalk,
she hangs her head down low, gazing at the shadows at her feet
remembering the last night's terrible scene
the chilly air nips at the scars on her arm and she tries to blink away the memories of yesterday's screams
but how can she escape from the cellar she wanted, on the chains seems
she wants to let go, but the bitter sting's the only thing she has to hold on to
bruise on her heart, blood on her eyes
he can only love until he can't hold the spark and dies
ripped sanities, broken ties
the castle he's built for her's crumbling into shadows and lies
tear stained bed, mourning nights
the sadness she felt, longing for souls and cries,
he drank the life from her eyes - they used to glow bright
but escaping's not easy, no matter how hard she tries
orange skies, and cloudy noon
starry nights and shiny moon,
think of that place it was her room
she rides down alleys she calls home
through the dust and dark
she prays, she's had enough
she wants to go back to the start
her heart lies, her mind tries
how do you rebuild broken bark?
- or should i say mend a broken heart?
fix it with glue, or some fraying string
watch as the seams snap thin
fixing something shattered
isn't as easy as it seems
she's walking all alone on the sidewalk
a stranger, i met on that day
decided to stop, and find someone on her way
until her feet bring her to me
until that day, i can only hope she's where she's meant to be.
