It wasn’t so very long ago

But things are so rapidly changing;

I always questioned from whence it came

Poor little girl all out of sorts

She said

“Why does it seem like nobody is grieving?”

Nobody believing what she said

She said

“Why does it seem like nobody is sad?”

To a xenophobic room, already in a tomb…

She was so kind

As far as anybody knew;

She had some runaway blues inside though

(chorus)

She tried to tell them, but nobody would listеn

The weight of accusation on the innocеnt

‘t’s Only a fraction of what led her to the runaway blues inside

Whatever led her to the runaway blues inside

Is what led her to the runaway blues inside…

She was such a pretty little girl

Born out of time, so unexpected…

She was so kind

As far as anybody knew

She had some runaway blues inside though

(chorus)

She tried to tell them, but nobody would listen

The weight of accusation on the innocent

‘t’s Only a fraction of what led her to the runaway blues inside

Whatever led her to the runaway blues inside

Is what led her to the runaway blues inside…
