Capo 1
[Intro:]
[Verse]
Momma was a bit naive and her Daddy was a blinded thief
He went and stole away what was left of the remains of a family
She d hide away behind a door she kept locked
But the walls weren t thick enough to block out
The angry noises of the voices that once soothed her to sleep
[Chorus]
And she lies tonight
Underneath the caving roof
And she cries tonight
Wondering what she can do
And she tries tonight
Remembering who she once knew
But they ve died inside
Another empty bottle takes a life
[Verse]
This world can be so cruel
She lives her life as a broken tool
And she believes she s unable to fix this broken machine
And what s the use to throw yourself at love
If in the end it never seems enough
To be able to get through all of a life s broken dreams
She watched her father live in regret
She heard her mother cry in an empty bed
And she swears this is the best life gets
[Chorus]
Oh, and she lies tonight
Underneath the caving roof
And she cries tonight
Wondering what she can do
And she tries tonight
Remembering who she once knew
But they ve died inside
Another empty bottle takes a life
[Verse]
And every little bit, every little bit of her wants to see the light
Oh, but every single night another little bit of her dies inside
She s trapped in her mind
She feels more alive, she feels more alive
In her own dreams
And she s wondering what s beyond the sky, could she see the light if
she falls asleep?
Oh, cause she feels more alive in her own dreams
[Chorus]
So tonight she lies
Lifted up through her own roof
Dried eyes tonight
There s nothing more that she could do
And they cry tonight
The daughter that they hardly knew
And she s lost in time
Another empty bottle takes a life
