Soul

There's a girl
Walking in the snow
She may be bundled up
But her soul is raw and bare

He gutted up her heart
With every trick he had
He said he loved her dearly
But never had the time to show

A thousand years past by
And her lights are fading
Her hair is tossed
Her baggy eyes are bleeding

He promised everlasting love
And she followed blindly
He led her down his roses' thorns
Until her feet were cut and broken

One day the girl musters courage
And throws the blindfold away
She has to hurry fast
Or he will chain her to the ground

So she slips, she stumbles
Her bloody feet are cracked
Her eyes are weary from the struggle
But she knows something is waiting further on
