The Echoing Green

She's Gone Tragic

The Echoing Green


She tries hard 
To look just past the sorrow and 
She tries hard 
To take hold of tomorrow and 
There's a haunting voice 
Inside her mind saying 
She'll stay here forever and 
She'll embrace the pain she hides so 
Sweet and tender 

She cries 
That she can't see the magic 
In her own eyes cause 
Something's gone tragic in her 
As she falters... 
(it's taking hold) 
She's stumbling 
As she falters... 
(She's letting go...) 
Into the light 

If there was something that 
Could make her happy 
She won't say it 
She won't mean it 
If there was something that could 
Make her smile again 
She won't take it 
She won't feel it 
She fights 
To hold on to the sadness in her 
I sigh cause 
I can see the madness here when... 

And there's someone she could run to 
When it all comes crashing down 
Yet the open hand stays empty 

She's eclipsing 
Losing feeling 
Grief addicted 
Self-inflicted
