A Fairytale about a Girl

There once was a glass house 
That stood in a field of sunflowers
One day a young girl with long flowing hair 
Found her way there

She didn't know when she closed the door 
Just what would become of her

As the lights danced through the screens
She fell into a deep sleep
When she awoke she found 
That she couldn't break free

She became a paper white princess 
Locked in a cold and shiny place 

Redwoods grew around her frigid house
And shielded her from the sun 
She played and laughed alone 
And lit a bright fire to keep her warm 

She became a redwood siren 
And sang deep into the night

One day she got lost in the dark
The tinder in her heart wouldn't light 
So she fell to her knees 
And she cried, and so she cried

She became a savior seeker 
As she peered into the dark

She knew that love was out there 
And she searched with all her might
But she had forgotten 
That the one she loved most was deep inside 

She turned that love around 
And broke the one-sided mirror

After the storm had passed
And the clouds opened up again in turn
She stretched her tightened body 
And began to hear the wind 

Once again she looked ahead with open eyes 
Just like a child with bright open eyes

As she kept her eyes wide open
And listened to the song of her soul 
The glass of her house began to shake
And as she danced the glass began to break 

She stepped outside the foundation
Of everything she once knew 
As she felt the sun and rain again
The shining light within her grew

And she became the light within
She became herself again

And the shining light within her grew 
The light within her grew
