One more night and one more stage
But she looks so peaceful sleeping
More nights of crooked smiles
And hungry eyes
The lights they go off and they call my name
The music is so loud, bends me to their appetite
So I take off my clothes and spiral away
There goes the tin girl again
Around her axis
Wind her and watch her go
Just one more night
Is this how all those who dream end up?
(Watch her go now )
Naked in the strobe light for a
(Stranger's fun)
All for a stranger's fun
(For your eyes only)
Straying even further from the sun
(Come and see now)
Acting out in ballet shoes all the scenes I thought would be my life
I could hear the crowds soaring to lay roses upon my feet
And now they rally like roaches to poke the glass of this strange figurine
And I bow to do their bidding as they soar for something obscene
And my shoes they gather dust
As the tin girl chokes on
Rust
Is this how all those who dream end up?
(Watch her go now)
Naked in the strobe light for a
(Stranger's fun)
Stripped down to the skin for just one
(Cold transaction)
Are there paths from which one could return?
(The road is winding)
How can this be the life I chose
Night after night, stripping my skin for the vulture's sake
Dragging my feet away from another closed door, hoping that change will come some day
I will not be a tin girl in a box, dancing away when asked to
And she, she looks up to me from her crib
Her sweet eyes, glowing like porcelain stars, knowing nothing of this world I brought her into
My angel will not grow up in this swamp
She will not breathe this foul air because of my affliction
I will help her spread her wings and we will fly away from this place
And one day, one day she will look upon me and she will be proud to call me her mother
And I'm gonna be proud of her
She will grow beautiful, happy and free
She will shine as bright as the sun, the sun I never got to be
And she will dance in the greatest halls, and songs will be sung for her and her golden hair
Poems will be written for her grace and painters will strive to capture her shine
Singers will sing for her days
And years from now, she will be peaceful
And I will look back, at a life well lived
She will never be a girl in a box
My Lizzie, you will grow up to see the Sky
