She sits alone
In a place she calls home
A flat she rents
In the undesirable zone
She sits in darkness
Her only light a flickering
Neon sign outside
It’s a if from the world
She is trying to hide
But that is not the case at all
It’s just that’s she’s fallen
And the was no safety net
That was in place to catch her
So she finds herself
Living a life so squalid
Working in bars just to get by
Among the drunks, the addicts
Under the Neon haze
Where life ebbs and fades away
But she dreams of salvation
In the form of a knight in shining armour
Who will come save her and lift her out
Of this depressing life
Lift her up to the warmth of the sunlight
Out of this cold dark existence in which she now lives
Sitting in the darkened room
She desperately dreaming
Hoping her life may discover new meaning.
