Don't Ever Let Her Be

So what if her fingers reach out?
Wrap her in the arms of oblivion tightly
Slowly kill her innocence
Don't ever let her go
She cannot hold on hope

So what if her eyes are always filled with tears?
Blindfold her with torn ribbons of solitude
Silence her cries of plea
Don't ever let her free
She cannot see the stars anyway

So what if she struggles to break away?
Burn her wings of paper
Crush her thoughts of freedom one by one
Don't ever let her live
She has nowhere to go

So what if her heart is eager to be ripped out?
She has already be claimed by grief
Don't ever let her believe
She cannot give what she doesn't have

So what if her soul is forever weeping?
Music comes in from the window
And yet she keeps on playing the same old broken tune
Don't ever let her stop
What's lost cannot be found again

So what if everything has turned to smithereens?
She still listens to the same old tales of return
Not ever accepting there's nothing more than this
Longing for a blank page without shadows
To start all over again
