An Echoic - Burn Lyrics

Her careful steps down the corridor
No one here has seen her before
And she walks around and round
The poor girl has traveled from town to town
She found this city as she
Ran ran, they got the best of her
Beaten, bruised and helpless as they
Plundered her world and said it's what you get for being such a beautiful girl
Oh, so bless this

Heavenly child, they gave your head a price
For so called crimes, a whore, a sinner
Keep your eyes down, feet on the cold ground
Let it go now, and you know it's over

Leave in silence, walk away
They stained her skin, it will show
She knows, she better just go
She fell through the cracks to the bottom, oh no
Lay low say no

Words, cause they wish this witch be burned
This one will never learn a thing from what they told her
Keep your eyes down, feet on the cold ground
Let it go now, and you know it's over

Be proud now as she burns

Her careful steps down the corridor
Someone here might have seen her before
The voice she heard said this is what you get for being such a beautiful girl
