a neglected girl tries to help herself stay sane |
Mary Stone was….reading silently Some old story, same old story They don’t notice her But she notices them As they walk right by Sometimes she wonders why She’s even alive Even though she looks Happy she is not Look into her eyes Her life is a lie But that melody Oh so softly Keeps her sane What else does she got Besides her books She is not fun She doesn’t have the looks They don’t know she’s being pushed Straight over the edge Shes on the brink of insanity But that melody Oh so softly Keeps her sane But the pendulum Is about to stop So she sings softly to herself La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la Everything’s going to be fine Just fine Mary Stone was… crying softly On the 10th story, same old story They don’t notice her But she notices them Hateful parents asking why She’s even alive Beer and cigarettes Arent helping the cause And drunken parents Are the worst of them all They don’t even care But that melody Oh so softly Keeps her alive What else does she got Besides her books She has no friends She has no looks So she sings softly to herself La la la la la la la la La la la la la la la la Everything’s going to be fine Just fine Mary Stone was…. Resting silently In the cementary, same old story She was finally pushed over the edge But not by her, but her father She didn’t know she was getting pushed over the edge Of the 10th story But that melody Oh so softly Is what she sang As she fell straight down La la la la la la la la Everything will be just fine Mary Sone was, at peace finally |
