Many a person won't believe her
When she said the world did leave her,
Many scoff and laugh and lie and cheat her
And away she runs.
Away she runs.
What have you done?
Away she runs.
Point-toothed faces come to greet her.
How they snarl and how they jeer her.
How they joke and how they leer her.
And away she runs.
Away she runs.
What have you done?
Away she runs.
Sharp-edged voices come to meet her.
But they cut as they try to cheer her.
How they bite but sill they fear her.
And away she runs.
Away she runs.
What have you done?
Away she runs.
Long-Clawed hands reach to seek her.
But she's deaf to what they teach her.
