Regression

I grief for that little girl in every picture

She deserved a much brighter future

That little girl's stuck in an adult reflection

Her eyes in tears, a mind in regression

A childhood that seems so distant now

With a blink of an eye, she grew somehow

Back to better days she's longing to go

The light inside faded with a single blow

In dreams she travels to another place

Released by demons, outside the gates

Her call within drowns in crual thoughts

She knows as well as me, that we've lost
