lyrics

Lying awake surrounded by her second guesses 
Counting her odds before at last she acquiesces 
Her family slumbers below 
She is scared of what they know 

There in the dark she gathers up her few possessions 
Her diary riddled with her sins and her transgressions 
Some food, some cloth, some string 
Is all that she can bring 

And slowly but surely, 
silently slipping down the stairs 
she makes it to the door 

And she takes a final look 
back at all that she's 
about to leave before 
She slips away from her shattered haven to the wind's infernal roar, oh 

The silent moon and the ever voiceless stars observe her flight 
And trace her form in shallow light 

Into the woods she treads, so aimless and uncertain 
Hiding herself behind an elemental curtain 
The trees will be her shield 
And keep her well-concealed 

But in her haste to flee she loses her direction 
The heat of the moment overcomes her recollection 
The pathways turn and twist 
But still the girl persists 

A tangle of branches suddenly snares her ankle and it starts to pull her down 
There's a rush of pain as her captive ankle snaps and as she hits the ground 
She begins to realize she is stranded where she likely won't be found, oh 

She tried to stand, but her leg gives out and she begins to cry 
But only wind and rain reply 

The callous moon and the apathetic stars observe her plight 
But do not move to ease her fright 
So she waits in terror through a sleepless night 
Where hope and vision both are slight 

Finally dawn arrives and grants her morning's rays 
And standing above her in the red and orange haze 
Is a figure, fair and sleek 
Who then begins to speak...
