She can't stop pacing

She never felt so alive

Her thoughts are racing

Set on overdrive

It takes a village

This she knows is true

They're expecting her

And she's got work to do

He helplessly stands by

It's meaningless to try

As he rubs his red-rimmed eyes

He says I've never seen her get this bad

Even though she seems so high

He knows that she can't fly

And when she falls out of the sky

He'll be standing by

She was raised in a small midwestern town

By a charming and eccentric loving father

She was praised as the perfect teenage girl

And everyone thought highly of her

And she tried everyday

With endless drive

To make the grade

Then one day

She woke up to find

The perfect girl

Had lost her mind

Once barely taking a break

Now she sleeps the days away

She helplessly stands by

It's meaningless to try

All she wants to do is cry

No one ever knew she was so sad

Cause even though she gets so high

And thinks that she can fly

She will fall out of the sky

But in the face of misery

She found hopefulness

Feeling better

She had weathered

This depression

Much to her advantage

She resumed her frantic pace

Boundless power

Midnight hour

She enjoyed the race
