Antidote

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Yeah, yeah, yeah

She set out to make a change

And leave her broken shattered past behind, past behind

To get back to the fairy tales

She dreamed about when she was just a child, just a child

She used to be an optimist but now she sees the obvious

She's running out of places to call home

At night time she cries out and lets the skylights be her audience

'Cause no one else will listen to her sad and lonely song

She's looking for an antidote

She's looking for a man that won't

Take advantage of her heart and steal her soul

Leave her in the freezing cold

A remedy

That will take the pain away

So she can go and start her life over again

Let the broken pieces mend

At age 19 she's tried it all

But can't remove the poison from her veins, from her veins

She blames herself and tries to numb

The shame imbued by self inflicting pain over and again

Something deep inside her heart rekindles and ignites a spark

And burns like candles lighting up the dark

She feels the air and breathes it in and dares herself to dream again

Let's go up on a search for something worth believing in

She's looking for an antidote

She's looking for a man that won't

Take advantage of her heart and steal her soul

Leave her in the freezing cold

A remedy

That will take the pain away

So she can go and start her life over again

Let the broken pieces mend

Now is not forever, all that soon will fade away

These walls will rend

There is an antidote to heal your broken pain

There is a lifeline that hides inside the maker of your brain

He gave His loving eye

Hold your head up high

You will get by, you will get by

Hold your head up high

You will get by
