Lost & Far From Home

With her head on her pillow and her pain tucked under the sheets
 Music playing softly without a steady beat
 The TV flickers flames of color; it ignites the room
 A black and white face, the colors escape, her heartache
 She ran away, so far away
 That the streets were no longer paved with lines
 The soles of her feet weren't as tough as she claimed them to be
 She wiped her eyes, it was no surprise
 That she was lost and far from home, strange unfamiliar signs
 Little to coincide, however she packed her bags and made her way
 Anywhere her feet could take her
 With her arm around her keepsakes and her mind on her mistakes
 She climbed a hill - one of a kind, numb to her step, she had to accept
 Changed scenery, it was now clear to see torn petals on a flower of her past
 Memories she hoped wouldn't last
 She ran away, so far away
 That the streets were no longer paved with lines
 The sole of her feet weren't as tough as she claimed them to be
 She wiped her eyes, it was no surprise
 That she was lost and far from home, strange unfamiliar signs
 Little to coincide, however she packed her bags and made her way
 Anywhere her feet could take her
 With her head on her pillow and her pain tucked under the sheets
 Music playing softly without a steady beat, without a steady beat
