I'm just a girl,
In this world all alone,
Fire burning inside my heart,
Screaming out your name,
Can you hear me?
I'm so alone,
Looking for you now,
I never wanted to lose your love,
It all happened so fast,
Like click, clack, boom,
They filled up a room,
Shots echo off the trees,
A shot heard across the seas,
Echoing back in time,
They took what was mine,
You fell to your knees,
The silence broke by my screams,
My brother was taken,
The only thing that made me safe,
And they took you away...
