Only the dark grows
Circling the windows
As stars gaze and I gaze
I'm circling the unknown
I can handle my blatant lack of understanding
But I'm tired of pretending I'm okay with this
If forever is a choice we make
Promise me forever will pull through

[For some reason my grammar was really, really bad in the last version, and I have no idea what came over me. Heh.]
You're running toward anything but reminders
Because that's all this house is
Picture frames and calling names
And your family's judgmental glances
At your child that will always be
The one that should have never been
Don't close your eyes and let her go
She's a little girl in a grown-up world
You're running toward anything but sanctity
Because that's all these liars are
They stare you down, you hit the ground
And you stare right back until they give up on you
Because they scorn you for why she's here
And they scorn her for who you are
But she's beautiful, and you love her so
But you're a little girl in a grown-up world
With a little girl held in your arms
And you have to learn that you were wrong
You're running toward anything but reminders
Because that's all this house is
Picture frames and calling names
And your family's judgmental glances
At your child that will always be
The one that should have never been
Don't close your eyes and let her go
She's a little girl in a grown-up world
You're running toward anything but sanctity
Because that's all these liars are
They stare you down, you hit the ground
And you stare right back until they give up on you
Because they scorn you for why she's here
And they scorn her for who you are
But she's beautiful, and you love her so
But you're a little girl in a grown-up world
With a little girl held in your arms
And you have to learn that you were wrong

[So, Jason told me to name this backwards so that it would be all cryptic, but it looked silly, so I'll save the backward names for another song. This is a rough somethingorother that I just wrote on a whim. Like all my other songs. Haha. It's about a combination of people, so don't get too excited if you get ideas.]
