Ephemera

Ashent

Used to live her days free
as she dances under the sun
Feel the warmth of love, breeze fresh
as springtime had just begun
She thought she had life figured out
Reality crumbles down
Now she laughs without a sound
as the days drift away

She's left as a shell
As the autumn rain blocks out the sun
Trapped inside her minds in a haze
She thinks back to that fateful night
He took from her what she held tight
As the light fades from her eyes
The damage has been done

No one hears her cries
Broken life, a shattered dream
She's only just a child
Cradled somewhere between reality
No one hears her cries
Broken life, a shattered dream
She's only just a child
Cradled somewhere between reality

Now she spends her days blaming herself
for what she has no clue
A damaged frail flower never to bloom
This wasn't the way it was meant to be

No one hears her cries
Broken life, a shattered dream
She's only just a child
Cradled somewhere between reality
No one hears her cries
Broken life, a shattered dream
She's only just a child
Cradled somewhere between reality
