With her head on her pillow and her pain tucked under the sheets Music playing softly without a steady beat The TV flickers flames of color; it ignites the room A black and white face, the colors escape, her heartache She ran away, so far away That the streets were no longer paved with lines The soles of her feet weren’t as tough as she claimed them to be She wiped her eyes, it was no surprise That she was lost and far from home, strange unfamiliar signs Little to coincide, however she packed her bags and made her way Anywhere her feet could take her With her arm around her keepsakes and her mind on her mistakes She climbed a hill – one of a kind, numb to her step, she had to accept Changed scenery, it was now clear to see torn petals on a flower of her past Memories she hoped wouldn’t last She ran away, so far away That the streets were no longer paved with lines The sole of her feet weren’t as tough as she claimed them to be She wiped her eyes, it was no surprise That she was lost and far from home, strange unfamiliar signs Little to coincide, however she packed her bags and made her way Anywhere her feet could take her With her head on her pillow and her pain tucked under the sheets Music playing softly without a steady beat, without a steady beat
