She left home like a stranger in the night

No goodbye for the parents behind her

Shattered, broken and distraught

This isn't what they thought

 

Estranged and departed

Seperated and disheartened

Where do you belong?

Now you know there's something wrong

 

Meanwhile the parents stay

Like sharks circling at your bay

Only time will tell

In heaven or hell

 

But time is still in abundance

Hoping, praying and waiting

For light to break through your dark clouds

To see if time is worth saving

While a bitter wind bites

And the chill frosts the night

Hoping for the light
