All around there is darkness,
Deeper than the night...

You thought I needed help,
You thought I was going crazy...

Mom in the kitchen,
Cooking tea...

I have a picture,
Engraved upon my soul...

Feeling only anger, about the past
Seeing only anxiety, for the future...

Surrounded by love,
And sheltered by pain...

Walk in through the broken gates,
Open your eyes and look around...

I’ve tried telling my problems,
I’ve tried telling my fears...

I used to be sensible,
Did as I was told...

How can I be right for you?
What is it I have to do...

Today I asked a question,
But I asked it quietly...

One year ago you were a little girl,
And so you may still be...
