she waits

she is strong and self-sufficient
no, she doesn't need no help
but boy does it get awful lonely
in her fortress by herself

she is lovely and soft spoken
no, she never likes to yell
but boy does it get awful quiet
in her fortress by herself

by herself, she'll pace the wall
scanning down below
looking out for the bad guys
or someone come to say hello

she built her stone walls far away
from anyone alive
though the whole world is just down the lane
it's not safe to go outside

inside the walls she built herself
are her passions, are her things
it's not safe to go outside, she says
she'll wait for the bell to ring
