Song Lyrics

Wipe away your tears
Put away your pain tonight
Run away until you finally see the light

Sing a song with me
Hush the quiet scream inside
See the world through different eyes
Hear no more the sound of lies

Can't you run?
A pretty one that's shaken up inside
Can't you hear?
I hear them call her name, misunderstood
She's unpredictable and

Hear the cold wind blow outside
Try to feel the warmth inside
Etched, the faces and the words into your mind
As she gently weeps
Surface the secrets that she keeps
Like a thief into the night
A love so wrong but right

Can't you run?
A pretty one that's shaken up inside
Can't you hear?
I hear them call her name, misunderstood
She's unpredictable and pure
Can't you run?
A pretty girl who's shaken up inside
Can't you hear?
I hear them call her name, misunderstood
She's unpredictable and

How can she, begin to try?
Misunderstood so many times, so many times
Rise above, rise again
Thought you went away but I misunderstood

Can't you run?
A pretty one that's shaken up inside
Can't you hear?
I hear them call her name, misunderstood
Don't you go away, don't you fade away
Can't you run?
A pretty girl who's shaken up inside
Can't you hear?
I hear them call her name, misunderstood
She's unpredictable and, pure
