"And She Was Gone"
By Ginger Foutley
from the season 3 episode

She chose to walk alone
Though others wondered why
Refused to look before her,
Kept eyes cast upwards,
Towards the sky.

She didn't have companions
No need for earthly things.
Only wanted freedom,
From what she felt were
Puppet strings.

She longed to be a bird. That she might fly away.
She pitied every blade of grass
For planted they would stay.

She longed to be a flame,
That brightly danced alone.
Felt jealous of the steam
That made the air its only home.

Some say she wished too hard.
Some say she wished too long.
But we awoke one autumn day
To find that she was gone.

Some say she wished too hard.
Some say she wished too long.
But we awoke one autumn day
To find that she was gone.

The trees, they say stood witness.
The sky refused to tell.
But someone who had seen it said
The story played out well.

She spread her arms out wide.
Breathed in the break of dawn.
She just let go of all she held...

And then she was gone.

Bring Me To Life by Evanescence

***

How can you see into my eyes like open doors. Leading you down into my core, where I've become so numb. Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold until you find it there and lead it back home.

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside. (I can't wake up) Wake me up inside. (Save me) Call my name, and save me from the dark. (Wake me up) Bid my blood to run. (I can't wake up) Before I come undone. (Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become.

Now that I know that I'm without. You can't just leave me. Breathe into me and make me real. Bring me to life.

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside. (I can't wake up) Wake me up inside. (Save me) Call my name, and save me from the dark. (Wake me up) Bid my blood to run. (I can't wake up) Before I come undone. (Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become.

Bring me to life. (I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside) Bring me to life.

Frozen inside, without your touch, without your love. Darling, only you are the life among the dead.

All this time I can't believe I couldn't see. Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me. I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems. Got to open my eyes to everything. Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul. Don't let me die here. There must be something more. Bring me to life.

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside. (I can't wake up) Wake me up inside. (Save me) Call my name, and save me from the dark. (Wake me up) Bid my blood to run. (I can't wake up) Before I come undone. (Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become.

Bring me to life. (I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside) Bring me to life.
