And it's been said
she dreamed in color
she lived her life in black and white
and it's been said
she's been here far too long to just surrender
she's far too far from home to just turn around

by Friday she was found but torn apart
before she left a letter on the table
wrapped in ribbons she wore across her heart
she said the world could never know
that we're better off this way
she said we'd never understand it all
