She never had an education She uses life as her vocation Standing on ledges Clinging to the edges The world's a hard place to land on.
She has this one-way conversation Trying to avoid a confrontation Memories of the kind That she'd rather leave behind The world's a hard place to land on.
Refrain x2: Life can be lonely Life can be very sad Life can be suffering you wish you never had. *weeping*
She never had any affection So she relates well to rejection No stories wait discovery Tears as best recovery Never had a chance from the beginning.
She just sleeps all day in her squally little slum and takes little white pills to make her body feel all numb. And it's dark and dirty and there's nothing left to eat and in her heart there's a feeling of defeat.
