Looking deep within herself
she doesnt match the face within the mirror
Purge her soul of sadness as
she feels the sickness inside getting nearer

beautiful inside her head
finding freedom in her dreams
terrible that no one hears
the terror in her screams

she’s a freak
thats what they said
she’d be pretty
if she fixed her head
shes alone
dont wanna play
nobodies home
they’ll stay away
and she goes down

fleeting moments she found love
smashed by years of pain her eyes are sorrow
another bend another scar sweet memories
erased by lost tomorrows

butterfly inside her soul
wings that fly in blues and greens
caterpillar girl theres room to grow
find reality in your dreams


she’s a freak
thats what they said
she’d be pretty
if she fixed her head
shes alone
dont wanna play
nobodies home
they’ll stay away
and she goes down
