Sanctuary
Dear uncle sold her into the purest kind of slavery. Hood-eyed little middlemen profited from damaged goods along the way. Good angels brought her back to a last Nepal summer. Debased, hollow-faced, a smile might become her. Now she's cosied up, cosied up and comforted in the warm flush of September. Gone before winter. Wondering as to might-have-beens. Somebody's daughter in sanctuary, waiting. Seen through softer cage of kindness, far and further still away, from time-warp Victorian zoos Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com where staring ice cream gameboys play. Big paws, worn claws and swishing tails. More damaged goods in the market sales. Too proud for anger, too late for hate: resigned in dignity. Gone before winter. Purring might-have-beens. Somebody's kitten in sanctuary, waiting.
Somebody near you in sanctuary, waiting.
