NADIA Hey, if you say so... Y'know, I can't believe you missed rehearsal again It isn't all about you! It affects the rest of us, what you do Look, what's wrong with you?
IVY Nothing
NADIA Poor Ivy, stuck wanting the one thing she can't have
IVY You think you know me...
NADIA Yeah, you know what? I am so sick of you moping around when you've had The world handed to you because you're pretty
IVY I'd trade places with you in a fucking heartbeat
Remember back in 7th grade Endless games of truth or dare Double dates in dark arcades When I close my eyes I'm there I think my mother took this picture Back when were all just friends Memories that fade and flicker Burn again when I pretend
Life is short and life is strange Trouble now and troubled past Times have changed they rearrange And little girls grow up so fast Feel it how it grows inside me Swirling ball of anguished cries Haunted daunted so unwanted Feel its anger in me rise
Dream a dream then end another Life is there to interrupt Someone out there call me mother Look at me mom all grown up
Good Catholic girl, her soul is saved And now of course it comes to this If only Ivy had behaved Or ever stopped at just a kiss It hits me paralyzing shudder Face the music take a bow Just another unwed mother One more sad statistic now
Dream a dream then end another Life is there to interrupt Someone out there call my mother Look at me I'm all grown up Look at me I'm all grown up
Little lies and big decisions Who to tell and where to go Follow someone else's vision Or trust my own ?cause I don't know Am I suppose to love this child? Is it just that simple then? Tell me how this change will happen Tell me how and tell me when Tell me how and tell me when
Dream a dream and end another Life is there to interrupt Someone out there tell my mother Look at me I'm all grown up
Story ends in total damage It's an unforgiving world 17 how will I manage How can I I'm just a girl
