The Flicker of a Little Girl |
| Was that the flicker of a little girl? |
| (Some moments our story is meaningless.) |
| When you just want to feel safe, you just want to be loved |
| And you know there’s no better place than this |
| Maybe I could prove myself wrong |
| Maybe things fall together than pull apart |
| 'Seen you when you were fourteen coming home from school |
| (It's so easy to be beautiful when you’re young.) |
| I still see that light that is shining through those tired eyes |
| Could those eyes see what was coming then? |
| And we all want what we can’t afford |
| And we all get what we deserve |
| Too many deaths and betrayals, too many lies |
| (Makes it hard to trust the moment you’re in.) |
| Too many teardrops that you hold inside |
| (They were always gonna pour over me someday.) |
| Maybe I could prove myself wrong |
| Held on to something I thought I never could |
| 'Never carelessly mislaid |
| I always knew just where it was |
| Was that the flicker of a little girl? |
| (Some moments our story is meaningless.) |
