I know this little girl that sits on the edge of town
She curses at the wind, stays away from the crowd
One step closer and she’s out of this world for good
One look over and she won’t be able to see the truth
And no one believes she cries
No one believes she tries her best everynight
To keepthose fears off her mind
To keep the tears from releasing the beast inside
I know a girl that believes in old fairy tales
She writes these stories where the happy ending never fails
But one more lie and she’ll be crushed
And the ones she’s believed in, will be the last she’ll trust
Her life is not her own
It’s out of her hands they’ll never let her grow up alone
How will she ever find a place to call home?
If this prison can creep into your very bone
And no one believes the smile
No one believes even for a while
But no one helps the fight
No one ever seems to have the time
I knew this little girl a long time ago
She believed in a world that was so out of control
She used to sit on the edge of town
Then one day too late and the little girl was nowhere to be found.
