She listens as the soft music plays through the air,
Her melancholy thoughts break up her stare.

She thinks of days of old and people that used to be,
Is it possible someone could be as sad as she?

She takes a breath and closes her eyes,
As the music continues its lullaby.

She feels no peace within her heart,
She feels the sadness of things apart.

How can she turn this world around,
And step out of sadness and into the sound.

But alas, there is hope in this world,
A chance to find happiness unfurled.

Her spirit rises as she sees the light,
Embracing her newfound sight.

But alas, that girl is me,
This journey of discovery I must be.

My dreams will rise and my fears will fall,
As I open up to the beauty of it all.

Take me to the place I yearn to stay,
and let me sit beside the bay.

The water speaks of happy times,
And of peace that can be mine.

Oh, how it must be to finally be free!
To break away from what held me beneath.

Take me there and let me stay,
Give me a chance to find my way.
