Once upon a time
A mom and a dad
On the outside
Had everything people wish they had
Beautiful daughters
A lovely home
With two cars
Only thing missing
Was the white picket fence around the yard
Daddy sold insurance
Mommy she was a lawyer
Daddy spent all his money
Mommy had no employer
Daddy got mad at mommy
Broke everything he bought her
And everything was taking place
Right in front of the daughters
Daddy what's wrong?
He walks on by
Mommy what's going on?
She lays down and cries
Caught in the middle of two wrongs
Tryna do right
She was in store for the biggest
Fight of her life
When you step to the edge of the light
To the darkness of the unknown
When you have no choice but to fight
You learn to fly where nobody's every flown
I can go…
4 days without food
3 days without water
2 minutes without air
Not a second without hope
4 days without food
3 days without water
2 minutes without air
Not a second without hope
Well she left home one day
Landed in Boston
Tryna find a way out the maze she was lost in
Can't sleep at night
She keeps turning and tossing
Thinks about home
Her parent's divorcing
She's on her own
A heart made of stone
Can't trust anybody
So she goes at it alone
Into whom she has grown
Brings ache to her bones
Can't take it no more so she picks up the phone
Daddy what's wrong?
He's living a lie
Mommy what's going on?
She hangs up and cries
Caught in the middle of two wrongs
Tryna do right
She was in store for the biggest
Fight of her life
When you step to the edge of the light
To the darkness of the unknown
When you have no choice but to fight
You learn to fly where nobody's every flown
I can go…
4 days without food
3 days without water
2 minutes without air
Not a second without hope
4 days without food
3 days without water
2 minutes without air
Not a second without hope
All the time that we let pass on by
As we wait for love to come into our lives
So we just improvise in order to survive
While the answer's in front of our eyes
When you step to the edge of the light
To the darkness of the unknown
When you have no choice but to fight
You learn to fly where nobody's every flown
I can go…
4 days without food
3 days without water
2 minutes without air
Not a second without hope
4 days without food
3 days without water
2 minutes without air
Not a second without hope
