Song I wrote to sing.
Flames in a Cup
I know you want to give up on humanity
sometimes,
But keep on making your faith a bigger hill
to climb
Toss the people out
Like friendly matches
To light the flame
Of a new day… yeah.
Little girl, only six
He thought he could
Be a little something sicker
Than what he had planned,
So he took her.
It was his dick in his hand.
She was just; six
She was only fifteen
And birthing her baby
Nothing more than a little lady,
Her daddy’s baby.
No matter hard he hit now
She’ll never go back,
With her child by her side,
she’ll never go back.
The black, blues, and swelling
eventually go down,
And people, still people, might
soon come around
humanity,
people,
humanity.

I called it 'flames in a cup', because I was at a candle light vigil tonight. I"m going to be performing this song tomorrow at Mitches. Come see!
