The fourth song in the inaccurately named "Anastasia" trilogy. I was dared to write this one by my record company

Little Anastasia hasn’t eaten in a week
She’s reaching for the other side
Her mind’s like a needle that’s impossible to seek
The spirits of the books are her guide

“Let me go, let me go,
My life is mine to show
I now reject this planet
All my enemies can cram it”
But they’ll never let Stacey go,
Oh no,
This town will never let her go.

Little Anastasia cried “no-one understands me”
Or knew how badly she’d been hurt
Her dad was so upset, that he just broke down and let
Her wear the vinyl corset and the fishnet skirt

“Let me go, let me go,
My life is mine, you know,
I now reject this planet
All my enemies can cram it”
But they’ll never let Stacey go,
Oh no,
Your parents will not let you go.

Stacey’s getting thinner
She keeps on slipping through
The cracks between her lunch and dinner
So what’s a girl to do?

Little Anastasia took a bottle full of pills
Posted on her Internet page
The paramedic team broke her door to smithereens
She shouted in a fit of rage:

“Let me go, let me go,
My life is mine to show
I now reject this planet
All my enemies can cram it”
But they’ll never let Stacey go,
Oh no,
They’ll never let Stacey go.

Stacey’s getting thinner
She keeps on slipping through
The cracks between her lunch and dinner
So what’s a girl to do?

And oh, she is a sinner
Her world is of intolerable pain
Oh, she’s getting thinner
She won’t believe in God
And someone stole her I-pod
How can you ask her to remain?

Little Anastasia went walking to the mall
Bought herself some brand new clothes
And down at the graveyard, her boyfriend gave her
A single blood-red rose

“Let us go, let us go,
Our place is down below
We now reject this planet
And those idiots can cram it”
But a suicide pact
Isn’t quite a private act
When your friends break in
And they drag you off again
Because your friends will never let you go
Oh no
We will never let you go.
