Tatiana as a little girl,
circa 1900.

       Little girl, open those childish, grey-blue eyes,
       Little girl, look up and smile.
       Little girl, laugh at your fairyland, your perfect home.
       Little girl, couldn't you simply stay a child?

       Little girl, open your eyes still wider,
       Little girl, peek out and giggle.
       Little girl, never minding what's outside.
       Little girl, your life illusion's still ashore.

       Little girl, open your eyes once again,
       Little girl, look out and see the world.
       Little girl, watch out, dread storm is coming.
       Little girl, quick do it, before the rain comes pouring down.

       Little girl, open your eyes still wider,
       Little girl, look up at the rain coming, pouring.
       Little girl, beware, your life is ending,
       Little girl, don't you realize life is dying?
