Her

In the deep deep shadows Of a dark dark night A girl walks the face of the earth alone As if pulled by a string She doesn't know where she's going She doesn't know where she's been All she knows is what waits ahead Because of whom she is People stare And people mock But the young one never stops She knows something they don't know And something they never will And so she carries on She goes as far as humanly possible And then she walks some more For she remembers the tale She was told long ago down by the shore Her mother had said 'My child listen closely I will tell you of a land Where you can find peace Where no one cries And no one lies No one mocks or shouts A place where one can only go If one has no real home A place where you can be free A place where you can roam Somewhere you can be yourself With no one to judge you for it So my child When I am called home Walk as far as long as you can And discover this place once more" But her mother left And she desperately needs An escape from the life She left behind The pain not even the drugs could hide And so the young one walks And disappears forever more For she has gone on to the place She was told by the shore.
