She once believed it was better To be alone In a world full of strangers Standing against the highest tide Protecting her heart From loves danger She wondered if it was better To cry alone at night In a darkened room Than to believe In old fairy tales And fall in love to soon She thought she would rather face The night Alone with a bottle of beer Than listen to another man Spin a tale she couldn't bear Many times she played the fool Losing her heart To big
blue eyes Her "friends" all thought What a sorry state Their disgust they would not disguise But she kept on trying And the tears Just seemed to fall Her phone was filled With cobwebs No one bothered to call Thus the final nail Was driven in Her heart began to bleed She found that love was lost Doubt Had planted
its seed She just wanted To lay down and die But she didn't know how She contemplated Suicide It did not matter anyhow Her heart was cold and frozen Her eyes Were forever dry She tried so hard To forget the pain Caused by all their lies So to the end She stands alone Defiant to the last Even though She forgot her lines She still belonged to the cast d.s. brueckner 2004
