[Verse 1] There was a girl Broken inside I felt her pain I tried to help No one could see it She couldn’t tell them Afraid they’d see her real self [Pre-Chorus] She kept drowning In her own thoughts Was nobody coming to rescue her? [Chorus] She’s all alone Cold like a stone It’s a dark night Will she be alright? Nowhere to go No friends or home She just wants Someone to hold [Verse 2] This is not a phase I see it in her eyes It’s not an escape It’s not a disguise She’s hiding for so long Thinking she was wrong She’s losing her mind Just please apologise [Pre-Chorus] She kept drowning In her own thoughts Was nobody coming to rescue her? [Chorus] She’s all alone Cold like a stone It’s a dark night Will she be alright? Nowhere to go No friends or home She just wants Someone to hold [Bridge] Where she belongs Will she ever know? Just come along And let her know where to go [Chorus] She’s all alone Cold like a stone It’s a dark night Will she be alright? https://www.melmaryns.com

[Verse 1] I tried so many times to tell you were wrong Been counting days and weeks and now she’s gone [Pre-Chorus] But you don’t know what you got until you lose it And a moment of happiness becomes a memory [Chorus] But it was real, so real You let it burn all the flames And now she’s gone, and you are alone And you’re the one to blame [Verse 2] If you had the chance to go back in the past Would you’ve done everything that I asked? [Pre-Chorus] But there is no time machine, darling And all you’ve got are regrets [Chorus] But it was real, so real You let it burn all the flames And now she’s gone, and you are alone And you’re the one to blame [Bridge] Ah, Ah, Ah [Chorus] But it was real, so real You let it burn all the flames And now she’s gone, and you are alone And you’re the one to blame https://www.melmaryns.com

[Verse 1] I can be here all day Nobody sees me, anyway Me myself and I Crazy eyes, rainy days I shut my voice and run away Maybe I don’t belong here [Pre-Chorus] They come and go As I if don’t exist Sometimes they throw Their gold at me Maybe I don’t belong here I try so hard to shout it out Nobody cares about my sound Alone in my dreams In a haunted crowd [Chorus] Like a ghost in town ghost in town Like a ghost in town ghost in town Like a ghost in town ghost in town Like a ghost in town ghost in town [Verse 2] They come along to this place But they don’t stay anyway Me myself and I Invisible cheers, cold face They don’t even know my name Maybe I don’t belong here [Pre-Chorus] I try so hard to shout it out Nobody cares about my sound Alone in my dreams In a haunted crowd [Chorus] Like a ghost in town ghost in town Like a ghost in town ghost in town Like a ghost in town ghost in town Like a ghost in town ghost in town [Bridge] Shadow on the ground No one around Not even a trace to be found [Chorus] Like a ghost in town ghost in town Like a ghost in town ghost in town Like a ghost in town ghost in town Like a ghost in town ghost in town [Final Chorus] Shadow on the ground No one around Not even a trace to be found Ghost in town https://www.melmaryns.com

[Verse 1] Once upon a time She lost her crown Running from the witch Hiding all the stitches In a broken mirror on the wall Only seventeen Falling down Seven millions tears In a glass of fears Lying down alone on the ground [Pre Chorus] And now she is caught In a castle of bones Carrying all the past But she’s not that strong [Chorus] Mirror on the wall Who is the saddest of all? There’s no ball gowns No fancy crowns Just a broken heart [Verse 2] Once upon a time She used to laugh Leaving all the screams Saving all the dreams In a golden mirror on the wall Love can be true there’s no doubt everlasting bliss waiting for the kiss in a bed of roses by the crowd [Pre chorus] And now she is sitting In a throne of lies Looking for the light Deep inside her eyes [Bridge] who is on the wall? is it the evil or the good after all who is on the wall? why don’t you show your face once and for all [Final Chorus] Mirror on the wall Who is the saddest of all? There’s no ball gowns No fancy crowns Just a broken Mirror on the wall Who is the saddest of all? There’s no ball gowns No fancy crowns Just a broken Just a broken Heart https://www.melmaryns.com
