Choice

Walking with her head down
Found cold where there was warmth
Stirring her own blood
At the sound of her voice

She wants to jump off the train
To find place where she belongs
She doesn’t feel strength
She’s lost on her way home

Fighting, losing
Running, choosing
Hope is the only thing she’s holding on to.
Doubting, brooding
Finding, losing
Choice is the only thing she’s holding on to.

Jumping off the rooftops
She found strength in her voice
Walked out of the line
She chose to be a different sort

Tattoos gleaming on her skin
Danger walking, staying near
She doesn’t let it beat her
Cause she grew as dark as the night

She’s lost the fight and her home
She opened doors she wished stayed locked
And all her dreams were turned to dust
But she didn’t let it push her off her tracks
It didn’t break up her ever part
She stood tall with all her might
Leaving on the train when the sun came up

Fighting, losing
Running, choosing
Doubting, brooding
Finding, losing
Choice is the only thing she’s holding on to.
