her mother always told her

she sings just like an angel

she swears she never left that song behind

she looks just like the type she

says she doesn't lie to

songs are circling her mind



lies

are another way

to close another day

that she dedicates a song to



cuz everybody's just looking for something

to play inside their heads

and tell them that they're ok

just a soundtrack to nothing

to play inside their heads

and tell them that theyre ok



she always sings the weekends

breathing in the deep end

so she only sees through sunday

she swallows all that she can take

from a song that she cant shake

and a melody that wont stop



silence

and a quiet mind

is all that separates her

from life she left behind
