Shayla worked in a factory.
E A
She wasn't history.
E
She's just a number.
E A
One day she gets her
E A E A E
final pay and she goes far away.

Green trees call to me.
E A E
I am free but life is so cheap.
E A E A
Scenery is still outside of me.
E A E
All alone, trapped by its beauty.

Shayla turned to run away, to
E
leave in peace and end her stay.
A B
Years of fear were in her way.
E
Lost in space and down she came.

Suddenly some subtle entity, some cosmic energy,
E
brushed her like shadows.
E A E A
Down here we stop to wonder.
E A
Cars on the freeway.
E
Bright lights and thunder.
