She’s just a haunted woman
They look away from her
She understands their silent curse
They say she knows the devil
Invites him in her home
But she’s not evil, just alone
I watch her wander slowly
All through her darkened house
It seems there’s one else about
But then I see a flicker
A flame runs down the floor
And someone’s slipping out the door
She looks to my direction
With sorrow in her eyes
She gives no confession
Silent as she dies
Now she’s gone
The fire takes her home
My vision fades in flames
And another dream is done
