Lyla in bloom
Her innocence and youth stripped away
Eighteen years old
But she's lived the life a sixty-eight
The heartache of a Mother gone
And a Father she's never known
So she dreams of a better place
Scared and alone
Turning tricks and getting stoned to survive
Vegas s** queen
Living in a world that's so obscene in a dead-end life
At the end of every tragic day
She says this to herself
If I can hold on I know
When I find my wings
I'll fly away
Over the mountains
Over the pain
And I won't look back
'Cause I've gotta get away from here
I've gotta get away from here
When I find my wings
I'll fly away
Over the mountains
Over the pain
And I won't look back
'Cause I've gotta get away from here
I've gotta get away from here
I'll find my wings
I'll fly away
Lyla, Lyla, Lyla, Lyla, I won't look back
I've gotta get away from here
I've gotta get away from here
