They never notice that she isn't there
Shes all alone and theres noone who cares

Only in time forbidden to be,
There are cat scratches

She hears everything, but little do they know
Her heart is what yurned that fire glow

Frozen in time for a moment she remembers,
There are cat scratches

She goes to speak but noone will listen
The agony and pain, so tired that she just gives in

Once again to ashamed to believe,
There are cat scratches

To be the one that never followed the rules
Upon the ones that have called her a fool

Through a dark and dangerous path ahead,
There are cat scratches

To embrace the pain or stay away from it all
While so many others just watched her fall

She made herself the enemy of her own,
There are cat scratches

They stop and stare, never leaving her alone
As the pain builds up like sticks and stones

A tear that burns and a heart now torn
There are cat scratches

The fire that builds, the flames that thrust
Will there ever be faith, hope, love or trust?

What will happen when she feels shes had enough,
There are cat scratches

When anger turns to hatred and pain becomes agony
What will be left of what little remains

Again she sits there and wonders through all the pain
There are cat scratches

She breathes with whats left never to take in
The fact that its over, she let them win

Tears are now amongst the ground,
There are cat scratches

The dirt that has been fulfilled
And the water that has cleansed her soul

Deep inside she still realized,
There are cat scratches

Take my body don't leave it there
As she cried out, amongst the fierce stares

The eyes that lingered for a moment longer,
There are cat scratches

Amonst the living, there are those who are deceiving
Never once wanting to let go

As she closes her eyes and whats left of her life,
There are cat scratches

For one so beautiful to go through so much pain
Vowed to never live her life in vain

Then as she ask herself why there all the same,
There are cat scratches

To never get back the things that they took
As she cries out for help, for things are far worse than they look

There is no light to show her the way,
There are cat scratches

Never again as she breathes in slowly
As she stares down at what lies before thee

Silver and it shines, smooth to the touch,
There are cat scratches

Innocence was spilt, red thats shown clear
After all this time of living in fear

How could it have been, how could anyone of known,
There are cat scratches

Now as she is lowered within the ground
Her wings breathe free, for she is finally found

From the antagonist to the ones that breathe silence,
There are cat scratches  

The words that were spoken, only to enrage an uprising
Did nothing more than become one less surviving

For as a new light shines upon her,  
There are cat scratches

As she over looks onto another in pain
She has vowed they won't go through the same

To wait for the light just one more day,
There are cat scratches

While she watches in fear of what will become of another
As they seem to speak, in the weakness of the other

As he lays on the ground for another hand is found,
There are cat scratches

He can't explain how he was saved that day
For only one person he knew ever looked that way

He then noticed the marks, as she faded away,
There are cat scratches

Til this day she roams amongst us freely
Don't be afraid if you ever see thee

It was never right for what they took,
With those lies, behind every pair of eyes

And as shes beautiful amongst the heavens
There will always be her cat scratches
