She Plays With Dolls

from La Gloira (MLP) by La Gloira

lyrics

She plays with dolls in a world of her own,
never steps outside.
Afraid of storms, between four walls,
no place like home.

To the gala party she was brought,
everyone's around but she stays in her cot.
Oh, how I wish to be like you,
and stop in rather than go to school.

Ignoring the guests she smokes her opium.
Outside, afterwards, she sleeps on the grass.
Oh, how I miss my sweet childhood
when I see how permanent it’s in you.

On her way back home through the alleys at dawn,
followed by stray cats,
she asked the snails how to summon the rain
so no one knocks on her door.

Uninvited visitors, stay away.
Leave her alone enjoying endless holidays.
Oh, the things you must have found in your dreams,
that made you ignore this world and its schemes.

She plays with dolls in a world of her own,
never steps outside.
