[Verse 1]
Child only ever given a name
Found a home with those who would keep her safe
Though they did everything they could do
She felt lonelier than they ever knew

[Verse 2]
In her storybooks she would escape
Judgement from her peers just for her face
Though they’d never come to know the truth
And they never saw her heart torn in two

[Chorus]
Oh sweet child
The world is never kind
Thе only comfort you’ve ever known
Is thе passage of time

[Verse 3]
When the city was taken by flame
So little would even remain
You who had little love from so few
Lost it all for a cause you never knew

[Chorus]
Oh sweet child
The world is never kind
Your sadness will only come to grow
With the passage of time
[Outro]
Try to stand tall my dear
Take power into your own hands
Begin a journey far away from here
And maybe somehow you’ll find
Your peace of mind
