two years shy of sixteen

wishing she would act the gap

wearing all she had to give

right there on her sleeve

she let the world take her for a spin

and swore she had nothing left to give

too far gone to bring her back

watch ahead, a strom can dig a ditch

she wouldn't want to loose that pretty reflection

she worked so hard

she paid that mirror

to tell her a lie

another season spreads potential

too pradictably, a rain cloud casts shadows

upon heer wreary head

its April you know so you might as well break

the rains bound to pour down

so get on your slicker and let's go for a ride

two years shy of sixteen

wishing she would act the gap

wearing all she had to give

right there on her sleeve

she let the world take her for a spin

and swore she had nothing left to give

cradling hope in her pock-a-book

scent of desperation

blown off her collar

she shrinks into a want

for something new to start again

she's tired of the same ol' same

she's tired of the same ol' same

deadlines set to keep

thirty years from what she is

ever heard of come what may

she never knew to let fate take her

she keeps the days on oaktag

throughs on her slicker

and wishes thirty years away

another season spreads potential

too pradictably, a rain cloud casts shadows

upon heer wreary head

its April you know so you might as well break

the rains bound to pour down

so get on your slicker and let's go for a ride
