Tainted

It's not a question of why and if she'll make it.
It’s more a question of when and how she'll take it.
Standing out there alone completely naked.
Another secret’s been kept and left her tainted.

There's nothing more she can do to make them change it.
She does the best that she can to rearrange it.
There's still the question of how she’s grown so tainted.
A tattered canvas unfurls, watch as they paint it.

She fought them bravely until defenses caved in.
Pressing their teeth to her neck until she gave in.
Now there’s no question this girl is well acquainted.
With suffering in a world that’s left her tainted.

Slowly fading and decaying.
Please ignore what they’re saying.

She’s at the edge of the world.
She’s there standing alone.
She’s the loneliest girl.
And now she finally feels like she’s coming home.

She’s just done what she’s been told.
Her heart is turning to stone.
Here at the end of this girl.
This time she finally feels like she’s coming home.
