Her mother's wishes still fresh in her mind

Leading her courage and kindness to seal her fate

A walk in the blissful rays of colored lights
Take me by the hand and pleasure my sensory

When I Sleep

...Of all things, it is happiness and fear
Both of these are strongly sincere
Either a laugh or cold tears shed
That's when the pain develops in my head.

...Away from here
That is where I want to go
I want to be able to breathe.
Nowhere near
Just keep digging really low
I want to be underneath.
Somewhere bold with something bright
That is where I ...

When all are gone upon you relied
When you feel utterly defied
And when all of your tears have been cried

Just look to your left and there I'll stand
