Song Description
I tried to imagine a story about a girl who was in a prison of her life and wanted to be rescued. She also feels like she doesn't belong. This is somewhat inspired by Belle in Beauty and the Beast.

Lyrics
V.1.- Sometimes I sit alone
And dream away
Of a place I've heard about
That haunts me when I wake
Where fairy tales are real
Imagination reigns
But this is just a dream
And I'm awake
Pre-ch.- Where is this world I saw?
And why can I not be there?
Ch.- Somebody save me
It's crazy
Can anyone hear me scream?
Maybe you have the key
To save me
V.2.- I walk these sullen streets
No one sees me
I hug my books so tight
But in my mind I'm free
Back in a magic land
Of fairy tales and dreams
Where my knight will come along
So gallantly
Pre-ch.- I know that if I believe
Someone will come for me
Ch.- Somebody save me
(take me away from here)
It's crazy
(I feel like a prisoner)
Can anyone hear me scream?
Maybe you have the key
Somebody save me
(take me away from here)
It's crazy
(I feel like a prisoner)
Can anyone hear me scream?
Maybe you have the key
To save me
Bridge- So meet me at the village square
I'll wear a ribbon in my hair
You can take me anywhere
As long as I'm away from here
Ch.- Somebody save me
It's crazy
Can anyone hear me scream?
Maybe you have the key
Somebody save me
(take me away from here)
It's crazy
(I feel like a prisoner)
Can anyone hear me scream?
Maybe you have the key
To save me
