My heart beats faster.
Blood rushing through my veins...
Drip. Drop. Drip. Drop.
The fire slowly dies...
There he goes,
The one "Purple Rose."...
I want to feel
His gentle hand...
I feel lost in the sea
Of names and faces...
Can you imagine the pain
One little girl must feel...
One thousand suns burned through my skin.
One thousand knives tore at my heart...
I quietly read the words on the page.
Nothing is making much sense...
In the dead of night
The air grows still...
My chest is on fire.
My stomach is turning...
I've stepped from the shadows
And into the light...
I feel like an animal
Caged up at the zoo...
