a bad night, good girl

with missed opportunities and a realm of mistake

travel to the past that disappointed her once before

high and lacking information

as the world moves

. . . slowly . . .

praying for an end to a night so short

leave her! don't speak!

a song to distract and a drink to recover

a breath of fresh air and a car to take cover

she's never felt alone like this

always surrounded by a welcoming world

a decision took three seconds

to discredit a lifetime of virtue

she wants to come down

but the moon promises a fun time

useless vows and thoughts disregarded

help her, she's sinking . . .

a car seat to catch her and jolting her back

tremble, shiver, she needs a new way

to stay true to herself

in the midst of decay.
