This cellar, a home for a sleeping Cinderella
The sweetness of silence, at the edge of forever
No longer a human, but dweller of the stars
A bauble of memory, engraved in it, their hurt
Deep lies the last of her left behind
Shieldmaiden in the night of human mind
See and remember her
The girl next door
Thousands of winters turned spring-eve in her eyеs
Away from darkness where shе alone gave light
We leave you to sleep now, in sanguine silence no more
And hope for the world to know your unsung story
Deep lies the last of her left behind
Shieldmaiden in the night of human mind
See and remember her
The girl next door
Deep lies the last of her left behind
Shieldmaiden in the night of human mind
See and remember her
The girl next door
Deep lies the last of her left behind
Shieldmaiden in the night of human mind
See and remember her
The girl next door
