Beautiful and yet so fragile
In her black, glutted soul
Beautiful and yet so fragile
In her cracked, bursting shell
Dead still
Dead still as if time (had) stopped

Then her bleak smile went up in smoke
I wonder where, where she is now
Somehow got lost somewhere in the maze
Disappeared, holding her breath
Framed body
Shadows painted over

Shell inflames
Shadow up in smoke
Gotta burn
And burst
And rise again

For now she is shy, insecure, scared
Another day (she'll be) bold and brave
Swirling flaws make her beauty
Change isn't far, breathe again

Slow motion
She's slowly bursting
