She's been hovering
With only one ticket in hand
It's one way, no return
Excited with lessons to learn
Never the same the second she landed in the rain
No turning back now, there will be better days
Her state of mind is positive, but that's soon to change
Her dreams keep fading, the colors desaturate
(I know, I know)
Oh, her dreams keep fading, the colors desaturate
(I know, I know)
A world shaded black and grey
She was brave starting out
But the life she craved brought destruction upon her faith
Holding on that maybe one day she might be saved
Every moment she let slip away, brought her closer to comfort
So now she stays, whoa-oh, oh, oh
Closer to comfort, so now she stays
Years keep passing by
So lonely with no change in sight
There's no fear (no fear), no concern
When deciding which substance to burn
Never the same the second she landed in the rain
No turning back now, there will be better days
Her state of mind is positive, but that's soon to change
Her dreams keep fading, the colors desaturate
(I know, I know)
Oh, her dreams keep fading, the colors desaturate
(I know, I know)
A world shaded black and gray
She was brave starting out
But the life she craved brought destruction upon her faith
Holding on that maybe one day she might be saved
Every moment she let slip away, brought her closer to comfort
So now she stays, whoa-oh-oh
Closer to comfort, so now she stays
How long have I been dreaming of a better life?
And what's left to find if I'm just living to survive?
Months turn into years, but I'm still waiting here, oh
But I'm still waiting here, oh
The love that I left behind (I know, I know)
No one to blame but myself this time
I will take back what is mine (I know, I know)
My every reason to be alive
She was brave starting out
But the life she craved brought destruction upon her faith
Holding on that maybe one day she might be saved
Every moment she let slip away, brought her closer to comfort
So now she stays, whoa-oh-oh
Closer to comfort, so now she stays
