she shines
in a world of ugliness
she matters
when everything is meaningless
she doesn't see her beauty
she tries to get away
sometimes
it's just that nothing seems worth saving

i wont let you fall apart

she reads the minds
of all the people as they pass her by
hoping someone can see
if i could fix myself i'd -
but it's too late for me

i wont let you fall apart

we'll find the perfect place to go
where we can run and hide
i'll build a wall
and we can keep them on the other side
...but they keep waiting
...and picking...

it's something i have to do
i was there, too
before everything else

i was like you
