Imaginary Companion
Her lifes been a mystery
since the day she was born
born into a family who
was too world weary and worn
to see the light in her burning
only saw what they needed to see
so shed glow
no one would know
thats why she called for me.
Im her imaginary companion
from a star that once fell
all she wants is someone
to know her well.

So she learned to keep quiet
learned to live where the edges can blur
trees could sing
the earth whispered things
that only she heard
I was always bedside her
the child of the shadows and me
where wed shine
her brilliance and mine
cloaked in invisibility.

Im her
imaginary companion
she swore that shed never tell
All she wants is someone
to know her well

Though she tried to fit in
she felt so alien
walk between worlds
solitary girl
lit up from within

Tending the flame
blowing the coal
I came as a guardian soul
warming her deep enough to keep
that innocence whole

In a world full of strangers
too much to buy and sell
all she wants is someone
to know her well

All she wants is someone
all she wants is someone
all she wants is someone
to know her well
