a lonely girl

By boundandfallen

i see the lonely girl
hidden inside her lies
i see the broken hearted entity
wishing she would die

you see the lonely girl
so strong on the outside
so beautiful within, you think,
but she's hiding in her sin

i see a lonely girl
playing in the yard
i see a lonely girl
wishing on some stars

i see the lonely girl
laying in the grass
if you could see her soul, you'd see
her heart is made of glass

the lonely girl starts crying
her tears turn into rain
she sees a raven flying
and blood runs down the drain

she hears her father sighing
as he fears his child's game
he knows she's really trying
but his hope goes up in flames

day by day she goes away
another peice starts dying
her mother left her yesterday
she hears her father sighing

and no one stops to notice
the lonely girl in the yard
the lonely girl playing in the grass
or the lonely girl's heart made of glass

the soul is so fragile,
yet so deep
and it takes a fragile soul to know
the warmth of winter's sleep
