Rockabye Lullaby

Where did she go
That girl who once knew
Put trust in the wrong people
It's sad but it's true

She's lost in the crowd
Among blurry faces
She's lost in the city
In unfamiliar places

Her hands are shaky
Her eyes are worn
Her breathing is heavy
Her clothes are torn

Cold on the corner
With only herself to talk to
Her "life" in her pocket
Only so much it can do

She feels deep regret
But can't change a thing
She's caught in the middle
Of a circus ring

This girl never smiles
She's numb to emotion
She's drowning in waves of desperation
In a back and forth motion

So rockabye baby
My fading friend
You've given yourself up
Here's a toast to the end
