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

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

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

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