She wakes and takes her place in line
And never bothers asking why
The mirror sheds no light at all

The days turn into lesser days
Until there's only night
The light, it wouldn't help, she's too far gone

Her time is up, it's five o'clock
It never stops

And she says please, and she says please
And she says please watch over me

I watch her slowly make her way
Down on the road she shouldn't take
She always ends where she began

The years go by, they’re adding up
She clicks her heels but she's still stuck
She’s giving in but won't give up
She'll never stop

And she says please, and she says please
And she says please watch over me
And she says please, and she is on her knees
And she begs and she pleads

She counts the time 'til her heart breaks
Just waiting for her next mistake

And she says please, and she says please
And she says please watch over me, watch over me
On her knees and she begs and she pleads

She says please, and she says please
And she says please watch over me

She counts the time 'til her heart breaks
Just waiting for her next mistake

Don't give up, I know you've stopped believing
And you're down and you're begging, you're pleading
Don't give up ‘cause you're not too far gone

Hey, oh, pleading, hey, oh, oh, no, no
Hey, oh, you're not too far gone, oh I say
Hey, oh, oh, no, hey, oh, oh, no, no
Hey, oh, she's too far, she's too far
