Aeons of Ashes - Little Match Girl

so full of sorrow
her darkest hour yet to come
she crept along
trembling with cold and hunger

mourning for someone near, someone lost
new year's eve, and yeah, of that she thought

something’s wrong… and she grew colder and colder
something’s wrong… as she drew her match against the wall
something’s wrong… colder and colder
all alone and…

OUT IN THE NIGHT
‘only one match, it's giving such a brilliant light’
SHE WANTED… SHE WANTED…
SHE WANTED TO WARM HERSELF

two steps from hell
there sat the child
out in the snow, in darkness

her loved ones, were long gone
she was leaning against the walls
stiff and stark sat the child
awaiting new year's dawn

OUT IN THE NIGHT
‘only one match, it's giving such a brilliant light’
SHE WANTED… SHE WANTED…
SHE WANTED TO WARM HERSELF
THE PEOPLE THAT SAW HER
WERE QUICK TO LOOK AWAY
SHE WANTED… SHE WANTED…
SHE WANTED TO WARM HERSELF

colder and colder
as she drew her match against the wall

‘someone is dead’ said the little girl
there with here matches, one bundle was burnt
‘someone is dead’ someone is dead’

‘someone is dead’ said the little girl
having lost everything to a ruthless world
‘someone is dead, someone is dead’

something… something’s wrong
someone was dead, it was the little girl
someone was dead
