about

A sad song about a young girl who died too early.

lyrics

I was only thirteen when they took me away
I begged them and told them I needed to stay
They tore me away from my mum and dad
Said I was a witch and took all that I had

Chorus:
I didn’t know how to Apparate and they took away my wand
They burned me at the stake by the willow pond
Before I could decide what hurt me the most
The pain was gone and I was a ghost

Thirteen short years is not long to live
I never got the chance to show what I could give
For years I stayed by my family
Until they all died, and now there’s just me

Chorus

Out of all the things that I miss
From my home to mom’s goodnight kiss
I miss what my death took away:
My future and my will to stay

Chorus

I wasn’t old enough to decide
Whether to go on after I died
So I’ll stay here forever more
A ghost waiting at death’s door

Chorus
