She wakes sweating, shivering, scared
she is alone
Been fighting to survive, fighting herself
her skin.. not even still her own
She's lost
everything
Never to be returned
Having somehow, somewhere along the way
missed the lesson intended for her to learn
Now she's too proud to ever admit
that solitary girl isn't strong enough
That the world...just isn't beautiful enough
to pull her through
She's gotten lost within her intent...
truth of the matter is..she really meant
to make things better
But life for her just never
seems to improve
Circumstance has her stuck in check
now she's gotta make her move
it's life or death...and either way
she's gonna lose
she's well aware that livin is nothing more
than the instinct to survive
She's been fighting it all along
but still she can't allow herself to die
Her hand reaches out for what seems like the last time
she's beggin for help, for something stronger than herself
to teach her how to survive this
She's been runnin for so long
only to reach the place where she can no longer hide from it
Now she's standing nude, bathed in the light of the moon
searching for her spirit
She'll chant and she'll drum and she'll dance
then she'll sit.......in the silence...that all the noise has created
and hope that she can hear it
