lyrics

What makes me different from any other girl
reaching her tendrils into the light
to be seen, to be noticed, all around, all right
once you steal her, its hard to get her back though we use all our might she's seen the darkness on the streets that she fights
she knows what she's up against.

she dreams / How she dreams/ she dreams/ to be – seen.

you see her dreaming you see her spacing out
you think she’s wishing on a star…
She will only tell you she got her doubts
looked out the window and saw a ghost.
radio was playing saying icecaps that are melting
it made her feel like going home.

she dreams / How she dreams/ she dreams/ to be – seen.

she looks out the window and wonders what its like to run away- daddy told her he would hit her if she did so she made up her mind and left that day…

what doesn't kill makes you sick/ and if you're sick you learn a lesson/ you get wiser and I figures / it pays to cross the line and eat a little dirt sometimes.

dream / Go on and dream/ dream/ to be – seen.
