Past Saving
A dying world moves forward
A blur of timeless haze
Each heart beats with a story
And every destiny unfolds
There is one standing still
Watching life pass her by
Her heart still beats
But she cannot be saved
Her story has been written
The ending has been told
She knows what they don't see
And she stands alone
She is the one past saving
She cannot be rescued
Her voice is rarely heard
But somehow she still speaks
This world cannot be hers
Nor can happiness
That's not her part to play
She was meant to be alone
So she waits
For anyone she can help
Knowing they will leave
And that her future isn't real
For her there's no tomorrow
Hope only brings pain
What she wants doesn't matter
But that's alright
Her heart is bleeding
Twisted in countless ways
She hides the bloodstains
And somehow she smiles
She has no time for tears
Her own pain does not matter
If she can live for others
She can still live on
