Lying unconscious on the floor
I cannot hear you anymore
They left me here; broken, unwanted,
feeling bruised, pained and sore.

And, oh, I wonder why,
Why don’t they want me?

I picked myself up off the ground
My broken limbs, I fixed myself
I swore to myself that day that
from now on this girl only frowned

And, oh, I wonder why,
Why weren’t they there when I needed them?

I forced myself to destroy my own love
No more emotions, no more pain
I changed into a black crow
And left behind the white dove

And, oh, I wonder why,
Why didn’t they make me keep on going?

So many times, I cried out for aid
My pleas were all ignored
They were too busy caught up in life
No attention to me, they paid

And, oh, I wonder why,
Why didn’t they help me?

Now I am here, a trapped soul
Trapped in a simple, barred cage
The key has been tossed far, far away
You won’t get me out, even if you push and pull

And, oh, I wonder why
Why did I allow myself to fall into this trap?

Why did this happen to a simplegirl like me?
Why couldn’t it be someone stronger?
I wondered why the pains, the maims, the tortures,
I wondered why they followed me.

Now I know, it was destiny
For me to suffer and live
Because now I can tell my story even though
I don’t even know how I got free.
