thin fingers grip that samsung
like its her lifeline
the pain in heart masked
by the eyeliner and sass
but i see it. oh, i see it.
and it begs me to look away
ignore it and pretend all's
happy and whole
but i can't, no, i can't
driving fast with the singer wailing
like the wind might carry her
away
but it remains
clutching the fabric of her soul
drawing her down, down
and it begs me to look away
ignore it and pretend all's
happy and well
but i can't, no i can't
is love stronger than her fear?
is light able to cleanse her heart?
can those shackles really fall?
kingdom rules say yes, but i don't know
so i smile at her and take her hand
singing along and hoping
the wind might carry us away.
