after the smoke settles
After the smoke settles
There’s nothing left behind
Just a little girl lost in thought
With broken dreams and an
Empty mind
After the smoke settles her
Heart is filled with fire and ice
She gets chills in a room even
Though it’s warm
When the smoke settles her
Face is damp with tears as she
Reminisces on her past life she
Always seems to break down and
Cry because it had never been so
Hard her life was like a fairytale
At the start
But It managed to go up in flames
So when the smoke settles she’s
All alone in a new place with a different
Fill stuck wishing that all her pain
Would go away and the wounds would
Heal
When the smoke settles and
It’s all set and done she looks
And the mirror and figures she’s
Had her fun thinking back on the
Past she finds no reason she has
The heat on but her bodies freezing
She thinks about it one more time
Before she finally realizes that if
Doesn’t let go her past wont
Wither and her wounds will stay
Open and seep until she’s ill
Her heart can’t bare the
Burdon any longer she can’t
Believe the thought she was stronger
But she’s not
When the smoke settles and its all
Said and done her pain will no longer
Come her wounds are entirely healed
Because she was slowly gone when
She slit her wrist and let it be known
That she was hurt
There’s nothing left behind
Just a little girl lost in thought
With broken dreams and an
Empty mind
After the smoke settles her
Heart is filled with fire and ice
She gets chills in a room even
Though it’s warm
When the smoke settles her
Face is damp with tears as she
Reminisces on her past life she
Always seems to break down and
Cry because it had never been so
Hard her life was like a fairytale
At the start
But It managed to go up in flames
So when the smoke settles she’s
All alone in a new place with a different
Fill stuck wishing that all her pain
Would go away and the wounds would
Heal
When the smoke settles and
It’s all set and done she looks
And the mirror and figures she’s
Had her fun thinking back on the
Past she finds no reason she has
The heat on but her bodies freezing
She thinks about it one more time
Before she finally realizes that if
Doesn’t let go her past wont
Wither and her wounds will stay
Open and seep until she’s ill
Her heart can’t bare the
Burdon any longer she can’t
Believe the thought she was stronger
But she’s not

Said and done her pain will no longer
Come her wounds are entirely healed
Because she was slowly gone when

That she was hurt
