1999
Just a little girl
Dolls splayed across the carpet
Sharing sweet kisses
Fulfilling their wishes
Til death do they part
1994
Born in the land of love
Daydreams of fairytales
Created by a mother
With bounds of love to give
Cradled in her embrace
It's no wonder I feel as I do
Taught to love free
But a world that takes that for granted
Is no place for me
My spirit diminished
Heart growing sick
Discarded, thrown away
For being romantic
It's no wonder I feel as I do
Taught to love free
But a world that takes that for granted
Is no place for me
My spirit diminished
Heart growing sick
Discarded, thrown away
For being romantic
Could have ended this much sooner
Saved me the heartbreak
You sewed up my soul
Threaded every piece carefully
Then unlaced me, letting me fall
My pedals could have grown
But a rose cannot survive
On its own
Maybe it's just me
A breed of my own
Placing the idea of love
On a throne
I'm broken, shattered
Glass on the floor
Hoped you'd stitch me together
I could be your Sally
But you're the boogeyman
And it's simply not to be
It's no wonder I feel as I do
Taught to love free
But a world that takes that for granted
Is no place for me
My spirit diminished
Heart growing sick
Discarded, thrown away
For being romantic
It's no wonder I feel as I do
Taught to love free
But a world that takes that for granted
Is no place for me
My spirit diminished
Heart growing sick
Discarded, thrown away
For being romantic
Was I just naive to believe
That my smile could change your ways
That my light could shine so bright
That you'd never want to leave
Was I too blind to see
As my heart skipped two beats
As I fell deeper
You never wanted me
It's no wonder I feel as I do
Taught to love free
But a world that takes that for granted
Is no place for me
My spirit diminished
Heart growing sick
Discarded, thrown away
For being romantic
It's no wonder I feel as I do
Taught to love free
But a world that takes that for granted
Is no place for me
My spirit diminished
Heart growing sick
Discarded, thrown away
For being romantic
