lyrics
It's been raining all day, The sun barely shined
She's been staring at a memory, She can not shake the lies
Painted in a dark scene, She steps on inside
Beauty in a heartbeat, As she tries to crack a smile
Through those tear-stained eyes, A girl who sacrificed
She's been living with her guard down, letting in the shadows
Loosing all the feeling, walking where the world goes
Started with her kicking, ended with her sinking
Can not lose control - (Heavy as the wind blows)
With not much to say she ventures outside
Knowing that the misery will dry up if she cries
Taking on the unseen, it hugs her too tight
It's looking like she's losing, yet she blossoms through the fight
Through those tear-stained eyes, A girl who sacrificed
She's been living with her guard down, letting in the shadows
Loosing all the feeling, walking where the world goes
Started with her kicking, ended with her sinking
Can not lose control - (Heavy as the wind blows)
Will she finally find her feet, or an embrace that she can love
Sure bad luck has played its part, but she also needs to hear
That she's perfect, beautiful, Yes, so lovely
And there's someone waiting for her
Through those tear-stained eyes, A girl who sacrificed
She's been living with her guard down, letting in the shadows
Loosing all the feeling, walking where the world goes
Started with her kicking, ended with her sinking
Can not lose control - (Heavy as the wind blows)
