From the recording Evie's Little Garden
Lyrics
Laney’s got a secret that she hides insider her perfect little world
Cigarette burns on her skin – hidden like the pain within
There’s a monster on the loose
Laney’s got a problem – Mommy says she’s been a very naughty girl
Now she’s locked inside a room that feels more like a tomb
It’s so lonely – oh
Whoa – No – She lights a candle in the dark
Can anybody hear me?
Laney doesn’t have a reason and she doesn’t have a rhyme
How could anybody hurt her when she’s perfect all the time
All she ever wanted was to know that she was loved
But you shouldn’t have to pay with flesh and blood…
And the Lonely Bones
Laney’s got a locket with a picture of her Savior on the cross
Lonely nights and all her fear – He’s the one who wipes her tears away
Whoa – No – She locks the bolt upon the door
Can anybody hear me?
Laney doesn’t have a reason and she doesn’t have a rhyme
How could anybody hurt her when she’s perfect all the time
All she ever wanted was to know that she was loved
But you shouldn’t have to pay with flesh and blood…
And the Lonely Bones
