Mama 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
Angry noises of the voices that once soothed her to sleep
And she lies, tonight, underneath a 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

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 life's broken dreams

She watched her father live in regret
Heard her mother cry in an empty bed
And she swears this is the best life gets
And she lies, tonight, underneath a caving roof
And she cries, tonight, wondering what she could do
And she tries, tonight
But she's out of memories that she once knew
And she dies, inside another empty bottle takes a life

And every little bit, every little bit of her wants to see that light
But every single night, a nother 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
Cause she feels more alive in her own dreams
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
A daughter that they hardly knew
And she's lost, in time, another empty bottle takes a life
