She loves it Not the drug, not the drink Not the acid, nor coke, nor ecstasy It''s like being high through her own true mind: being euphoric, excited, awake and alive "She''s crazy" a man said, under his breath... "She won''t shut up" said another, smirking to a friend But she laughs outside and dances in the rain Talking loudly to her boyfriend, who''s embarrassed and in pain She carries on, despite the staring She''s strong and alert; a grin as big as the earth She''s infinite, alive and totally magnificent Not one thing could leave her sad, she''s completely brilliant Nothing can stop her As she runs skips and hops... Until suddenly she comes to an abrupt stop Nothing is the same She has nothing to hold onto No reason to fight There''s poverty and war and sadness and madness The clouds grow stronger Gravity increases until she can''t hold on any longer She breaks down to the floor She doesn''t love it anymore She lies there, broken and shattered forevermore She screams and screams and looks up the sky She lets out a cry: "I just want to die"... |
