into the woods

our story starts

with two girls

one named alyssa, the other jane

and how the world lost them that day

jane wore laced ribbons

but she never listened

alyssa wore short skirts

to forget about her worth

the two become quick friends

promised they'd be there til the end

would take all their secrets to the grave

alyssa was always a little more brave

they often ran into the woods

only telling stories, to make themselves look good

they stitched together their past

and learned to run, oh so fast

alyssa grabbed jane’s hand

together they drew out a five year plan

never did quite make it there

what a shame they were so unfair

they often ran into the woods

only telling stories, to make themselves look good

they stitched together their past

and learned to run, oh so fast

running only got them so far

now when you look at the stars

better say your prayers

some still hear their screams in the august air

they often ran into the woods

only telling stories, to make themselves look good

they stitched together their past

and learned to run, oh so fast
