It’s time to clean out her room
Starting a new chapter
Childhood memories dusted off
The giraffes are all gone.

Sorting between what stays and what goes
Thinking about next week
They used to keep her company
The giraffes are all gone.

Packing what will be taken
College, her childhood dream
Nightmares woke her up
The giraffes are all gone.

Waving at her parents
Looking at a new door
She had to say goodbye
The giraffes are all gone.
