Hospital halls are dark tonight
The smell of death and bleach suffocates her dreams
People stare blankly with empty eyes
Hope died when it entered this room
Unnoticed, she stands in the corner
Forgotten in life and in death
The doctors talk as though she's not there
For the girl on the bed cannot hear
"What a shame," they say, "to die this way,
So beautiful and alone."
To scream from her corner would make no difference
They cannot hear or understand
She walks away from the dimly lit room
Leaving her broken body behind
All their sad faces and pity can't save her
She's too far gone this time
She made her choice, trading pills for her pain
To sleep forever in this forsaken place
