Lyrics:

She's never alone
Because she's scared of what she might say to herself
Always drinking in the backroom of the bar
Where everyone turns in a half-hearted grin

She won't be afraid
As long as that prescription keeps on going through
And all the happy pills make her look like
A cardboard cut out of someone I used to learn from

But on the phone, she's telling everyone
That there was a blue sky she left behind
And there's a place that no one knows about, away from integrity
She writes a book in her head that nobody will read

Whatever you say
Please don't talk about the time when she was young
Apparently that was a different person
And so long ago, it's strange to me, there's no history

But there's a past and she's telling everyone
It must be a garden that wouldn't grow
With roots of shame, too sensitive to blame herself as we watch her drown
I can't save the queen without a kingdom or a crown

Somewhere in this lonely game of sympathy
There is a selfish dream that makes me sick
Standing on the high wire while you're on the ground
To you what is dangerous, the safe and sound
You let me down
