Shayla worked in a factory.
D# G#
She wasn't history.

She's just a number.

final pay and she goes far away.

Green trees call to me.

I am free but life is so cheap.

Scenery is still outside of me.

All alone, trapped by its beauty.

Shayla turned to run away, to
D#
leave in peace and end her stay.

Years of fear were in her way.

Suddenly some subtle entity, some cosmic energy,
D#
brushed her like shadows.

Down here we stop to wonder.

Cars on the freeway.
D#
Bright lights and thunder.
