She lies asleep,
Escaping in dreaming,
Singing softly through the forest that confines her,
She longs for the sky,
She longs to see the world,
And pleads the light to let her go.

She lies asleep,
Afraid of falling,
Running scared through the forest that defines her,
She longs to be safe,
She hides from the truth,
And tells the light, no!

She lies asleep,
Shaking, but still,
Alive, pacing through the forest that refined her,
She knows it must be hard,
She knows what she must do,
And watches the light she'll never know.

She lies asleep,
Ready and waiting,
Dancing, alive, through the forest that's behind her,
She longs to breathe,
She longs to wake,
And the light takes her hand for one more dance
