"Amber" lyrics - STICK TO YOUR GUNS

Her name is Amber
She has eyes like her mother
She's beautiful, bright and the whole world's in front of her
She has a smile that could end a war
Yet no one wants her and she has nothing to care for

She's only 14 and she thinks:
"Why is the weight of the world crashing down on me?"
'Cause as of late the sun doesn't seem to shine so bright
And the place where my heart once was has lost its fight

She's on her own
And as she braves her storm
All alone

She screams, "oh
I've had enough, please make this go
The sea is rough and I'm drowning slow"
Her mind-numbing pain has her lost in the undertow
I just wish she knew she didn't have to be alone

You don't have to be alone
You're not alone
You're not alone

Her arms are locked in the devils chains
And her heart, broken and trapped in a steel cage
She can't catch her breath as she chokes on the pain
So she brings her pain to the surface of her skin

Your frozen agony burns you
Can't even begin to know
The nightmare that you've been through
Only you can break the cycle that plagues you
There is a light, you just have to see it through

She's on her own
And as she braves her storm
All alone

She screams, "oh
I've had enough, please make this go
The sea is rough and I'm drowning slow"
Her mind-numbing pain has her lost in the undertow
I just wish she knew she didn't have to be alone

She screams, "oh
I've had enough, please make this go
The sea is rough and I'm drowning slow"
Her mind-numbing pain has her lost in the undertow
But please just know: You're not alone
