She stares down the glass Thinking she’ll have some more Friday nights like these She kicks her life out the door Make it to the top Be the best around She’s sick of saying she’s fine, Suffering inside without a sound At night, in the darkness alone She asks god why through teary eyes Silence echoes the shadowed room Neighbors sleep, deaf to her cries Unanswered questions fill her head Failure shivers through her heart Her mind rips itself to bits Day by day, part by part Mirrors boarded up Frames turned down Masking her past With an in turned frown Never really fitted in her whole life Always an outcast, beautiful disaster She tries so hard to make it In her head she just runs faster Faster, faster, faster Trying to run the race She was never meant to win In your eyes she’s just last place Let’s face it, you’ve never been proud Making you smile wasn’t fun How hard was it really? Just to tell her well done It’s too late now, Nothing’s gonna make this right again Killed her from the inside out You’ll never understand |
Interesting. Reminded me a bit of Leonard Cohen's " Dress Rehearsal Rag"... a story of failure. You painted an interesting picture there. And I imagined the persons spoken to in the end being this young woman's parents tho they could as easily have been her friends/ co-workers, I guess. Dark.... but well put, I thought.
