In Karen's World Copyright © Tricia Baker/Nadia Cripps/Billy Playle 2007, 2009 by Tricia Baker (lyrics) and Nadia Cripps & Billy Playle (music). Billy Playle (recording, production, orchestration, vocals), Nadia Cripps (piano, photo). In Karen's world there are no rainbows There are only shades of black on white Steely shipyard grays envelope her And carry her deep into the night There demons lurk among the shadows Where she longs to find one safety net Among the voices in her head That scream she will never be herself In Karen's world there are no playgrounds There are lonely sad faced little girls And only the weakest of the weak She allows to live inside of her The mean ones stand outside her front door And won't let her come out to play She assumes a new identity Because she knows that's the only way In Karen's world there is no magic In hard bitter truth and fantasy An abuser's cold conviction to Bring her alter egos to their knees When that vacuum begins to spiral The ground shakes where she just lost control In a dark world of fear and madness She reaches for one warm hand to hold
