Hope

She waited by the phone
In a motherless home
So young and naive
With a hungry mind to feed
The blood is running cold
Hope is almost gone
She used to dress in black
Connected to her past

She couldn't break free
Accepted the defeat
Only shadows remains
And she gave them names
Tried to clean up with bleach
To wash away the dreams
She waited for a sign
Since she was left behind

She is in this world
Chasing ghosts
Unanswered, unanswered
The unknown is scary
To be alone is scary
Even more when been abused

A sudden change
She was too young to change
Carrying on in the outside
But dying inside
She's standing at her feet
And the future looks bleak
She keeps trying to cry
But weakness was denied
But weakness was

Lips that have never been kissed
Stories that will not exist
A love she thought someday to find
A friend she could count with for life, denied
Tried to clean up with bleach
To wash away the dreams
After all she’s been through
After all she’s been through

She is in this world
Chasing ghosts
Unanswered, unanswered
The unknown is scary
To be alone is scary
Even more when been abused

She is in this world
Chasing ghosts
Unanswered, unanswered
The unknown is scary
To be alone is scary
Even more when been abused
