Tear stained, bitter sweet, she stumbles in the dark
Hit and run, hide and seek, she tried to find herself
and her mind is like a jigsaw puzzle; all the pieces are so mixed up
In a playground she is spinning around twirling around in a dream
flying away, flying away, flying away
Speak to her, she will smile, and tell you all is o.k.
but deep inside there’s a fire, fighting for release
and they tried to put out her fire
with their watering cans, watering cans,
so she flies away, to that place of freedom.
The professionals tried to groom her and the doctors tried to supress her
and the men that have abused her
are the ones who broke her mind
hold on to your sanity, hold on to your peace
hold on to your sanity, hold on to your dreams
Some say she’s unstable, that she needs some serious help,
but I’m telling you, I’m telling you
what she needs is simply… love
