(hmmm, yeah)
Locked behind the heavy wooden door
Drawing pictures on the dusty floor
No one heard the secrets that she kept While the rest of
the house softly slept
Trapped in the shadow of a giant's wall
Waiting for the summer rain to fall (waiting,
waiting) She learned to survive inside her mind
Leaving all the broken glass behind Heavy footsteps walking down the hall
She would shrink and make herself so small
Underneath the bed her only space
Dreaming of a warm and safer place
But her mother kept the fire bright
Guiding her through every stormy night
Trapped in the shadow of a giant's wall
Waiting for the summer rain to fall (waiting,
waiting)
She learned to survive inside her mind
Leaving all the broken glass behind
(You were right, mom.
We don't need that man!)
