Trapped in a place
Where nothing exists anymore
Nothing good or right
Nothing is in store
For the girl by the river
We're old memories flow
Drifting around
With nowhere to go
Hiding behind
The mask that she holds
Trying to escape
The unbreakable mold
Of the cage she is held in
With nowhere to go
But the girl by the river
Can't find a way to say no
She can't get away
To find the key
That gives her freedom
For a new place to see.

Trapped in a place
Where nothing exists anymore
Nothing good or right
Nothing is in store
For the girl by the river
We're old memories flow
Drifting around
With nowhere to go
Hiding behind
The mask that she holds
Trying to escape
The unbreakable mold
Of the cage she is held in
With nowhere to go
But the girl by the river
Can't find a way to say no
She can't get away
To find the key
That gives her freedom
For a new place to see.
