Poor little girl She never had a chance Looking for answers And finding song and dance What lies behind a curtain of lies? A mother who suffers And a little girl who cries Don't be confused by her animosity She still licks the wounds from being too trusting And don't misinterpret her desire to be free She doesn't need a false sense of security
Looking ahead The turning heads They never catch her eye She's haunted by the mystery of secrets that she hides Finding escape in solitary unchained melodies Haunted by the mystery of secrets that she keeps On and on but not forever
Poor little girl Never gave her a chance She only wants to see What she can mke with her own hands Don't try to take her only dream away With reminders of the failures And the folly of yesterday
Didn't you think? She was bound to escape Didn't you know? She'd grow too big for your cage Used to walk underneath you Now she walks by your side Stop pretending this litle girl has died
