chiffon tights on her broken knees
she clings to dear life but she aims to please
she wants nothing more than to be seen
but this is her life, sweet Eveline
this is the world; this is reality
but she's filled her mind with insanity
what's coming to her: she always sees
death is upon her or so she believes
so last night she told me
"goodbye my friend"
"i'm sorry to say this, but
this is the end"
i tried to make her
stay the night
but she ran away,
out of my sight
