The lights were so bright,
They hurt my eyes...
All the other faces around you,
All the other lives there...
Scared of the dark,
The little girl wanders...
These eyes
That spill honey-sweet tears...
She sat on the pavement,
In the cold, dark and wet...
Remember the rain,
How I fussed with my hair...
The toll past Heavens gate,
Be a good girl...
You are my sparkling treasure,
You are the one...
Dear tree in the middle of the pavement,
I hope you live to see...
The streets are darkened,
As the sun leaves...
The days grow cold, dark, and short
They merge like clouds in the sky...
As I stumble away from the life I used to know,
Broken and bleeding...
