Live

She's silent here
After a year full of words
One more day
As she pushed towards the fall
Wake Up, Get Dressed, Survive

A massive house
Flooded with ghosts of memories
Long enough now
For others to forget what she wouldn't
Eat Lunch, Read Books, Survive

Just another day
Without hearing from old friends
Car hasn't run
From the minute she made it home
Sit Outside, Walk Around, Survive

Can't take it
So she'll have to start over
Today's the day
To get away from old lies
Start Engine, Drive Away, LIVE
