She’s a witness to the fact,
life is not so easy.
Although sometimes she’d like to forget,
she understands completlely.
All the pain builds up within
until finally she can take no more.
She tries to keep it all inside,
soon her heart becomes an open door.

chorus

She wants it all to disappear.
She hides away inside her Ivory Tower.
She feels so good to be all alone,
hiding from the world inside her Ivory Tower.

verse 2

She says “Time after time life serves cruel reminders.
Despite who we may think we are reality confines us.”
So she makes a break away. Back into the shadows.
She never steps back into the light. The dark is all that matters.
