she hid under the scars on her skin
long sleeve summers, no one saw her walls cave in
her eyes aren't windows they are warnings
between you and her, there's a wall of what she want you to see
and you’re the first to know
she not alright
blinded by the sight of a perfect girl
the writings on the wall
are in her eyes
and everyday she hopes that you will find her in time

because she's
locked in

she's running out of time
running out of time

but she
hear's them

telling her she's done enough
but don't let her give up
because she

told you everything was alright
you let it go, knowing she's already in the devils sight
don't just let her drift away
say what you need to say and
find a way
cuz you're the first to see
her loving eyes
falling into a world of death and life
and you're the first to kiss
her hateful lips
right after the father who has left her in a ditch

because she's
broken

waiting for the day
that you let her
let it end

but you heart is
stolen

so you take the knife away and say
"i'll take the torture away from you baby
and all you gotta do is love me

we'll pick up the pieces in time
for you to be
with me as my loving bride"

and in her glowing eyes
that day
she said i'll stay
forever and always

and as they said all their " i do's"
she said i have a word or to
for you

"all the stars shined
brighter than the nights i had without you
though i'm still trying
i know by the end of time i'll have the pieces back
and i'll be able to say goodnight
without going back to those nights
without you

you were the first to know
i had a light
the love my father never gave was right there in your sight
and i'm the first to kiss
your loving lips
after all we've been through
i know we'll be the A team
in our time

*and this little light of mine
will shine
