lyrics

In every word
In every breath
In everything she denies
a living need

She's so afraid
fears every day
but deep inside
anachronistic safety
carries her away

Please don't hurt me anymore
Please don't hurt me anymore
Please don't hurt me anymore
Please don't hurt me anymore

She's broken by her world
but she's still breathing
a desperate hope for something better
shines in her hollow eyes
and deep inside she keeps
a guarded comfort
a life where she grew up
the normal girl she longs to be

She hides inside
her timid mind
damaged and isolated
from commiseration
with her fantasies

And in the night
she curls tight
withdraws into
reverie:
a dream of escape from this hell

Please protect me from this world
Please protect me from this world
Please protect me from this world
I am just a frightened girl

She's broken by her world
but she's still breathing
a desperate hope for something better
shines in her hollow eyes
and deep inside she keeps
a guarded comfort
a life where she grew up
the normal girl she longs to be

Hold me, comfort me
tell me that you'll be there
love me, keep me safe
protect me from this nightmare

Hold me, comfort me
tell me that you'll be there
love me, keep me safe
protect me from this nightmare
