Isn't that who you are baby?
Goin up town in your red dress,
face painted like a Goya,
clinking glasses with high life
at a fundraiser and older rich
men laughing at your ****** jokes.
You having a hole to fill,
a need to be more than where
you came from, no ***** trailers
to wake up in anymore girl.
Spent the money on this ticket
that coulda bought ramen for a week,
but you need this night more
than you need food.
I don't want to sound judgemental,
because I'm not judging at all,
just commenting on a life
so many women like yourself
have wound up living.
Least you're not turnin tricks anymore,
so I hear, and for that I'll thank
whatever deity is responsible,
hopefully you never need to sell
your perfect body like that again.
All those boys you thought were the one,
all those nights with a needle in your arm,
all those mornings waking to sadness.
When you get home tonight,
to an empty bed and dusty memories,
I hope somewhere deep down,
you know my heart goes with you.
