Forever, she cried, and thought to hold on
To the dreams inside, they crumbled away
She battled the burn, but somehow the world was cruel
It was my turn to cry out in pain

There are tears on the sidewalk
And nothing can make her stay
Eternity's just talk
She wastes away all her days
Never remains
Long enough to find him again
She's lost in a lonely place.

Time starts to pass as she fiddles with X's
She's made of glass and tells herself to stop
Her dreams are destroyed to the weight of an angel's
Harp on the wall, she sings to the night sky

She's troubled and hurt
And nothing can make her stay
She's lost what she's worth
She wastes away all her days
Never remains
Long enough to find the key
She's lost in a lonely place.

Closing her eyes to the lightning around her
There's nothing, just lies, so ugly and unsure
The weight of the world is crushing her shoulders
She's Atlas and Artemis as she grows older

She's missing inside
And nothing can make her stay
There's nowhere to hide
She wastes away all her days
Never remains
Long enough to find her face
She's lost in a lonely place.
