Collapse
Everything is collapsing around here
Let me take a breath once more
Heal my wounds, my scars and fear
I want to be the girl that you never loved
I want to be the woman that you are looking for
You know more
You don’t know enough
But you know more
You know what lies beyond my smile
You know more than you think
I’m half way a laugh
Mary you are nearly a laugh they said
Mary you are nearly a coward they over said
Can you look at my weary eyes ?
Can you manage my sudden lies ?
I’m losing control
My body is my soul
And my soul is forsaken once more
Do you think that with your pity you could get me down ?
Do you think when you abandon me you unleach my crown ?
