lyrics

Who is that girl?
Dead eyes, pale, beaten and bruised.
She's got the weight of the world on her shoulders;
She's practically invisible.

In herself a prisoner of her mind,
She couldn't search anywhere else to find.
To the world another kid not worth saving.
She has to escape herself.

Trapped within herself.
To leave she'll put her world through hell.
For all the times no one was there as finally taken its toll.
Her wonderland is here and slowly tears apart her soul.
And it hurts.

Prick of a needle with an urge to kill.
She had a whole in her heart that she had to fill.
More to her than a leisurely addiction,
She must escape herself.

Trapped within herself.
To leave she'll put her world through hell.
For all the times no one was there as finally taken its toll.
Her wonderland is here and slowly tears apart her soul.
And it hurts.

What have I done? Where can I go?
How can I run away from this world?
I'll sit and I'll scream; I'll sob and cry.
I'll pray to a lord who's love is a lie.

What happens to life when the end is near?
These sleepless nights and endless tears.
Trapped in my shell, awaiting my hearse.
Why give me hell? My heaven's a curse.

Trapped within herself.
To leave she'll put her world through hell.
For all the times no one was there as finally taken its toll.
Her wonderland is here and slowly tears apart her soul.
And it hurts.
And it hurts.
