She stands, a target behind the counter
|
And she burns a little more with evry encounter
|
Spit on again and again till her eyes are bloodshot
|
And now they've slowly sunken in
|
"There's gotta be more to life than this"
|
She whispers under her breath as she pulls another double shift
|
She's 21 a single mother of two
|
And this fucking dead end job barely buys enough food
|
It's slowly killing me I've gotta go
|
Cause I can feel my blood pumpin' like the stereo
|
I've kept it bottled up inside but now it's gonna blow
|
So... what are you gonna do when it comes down to you
|
10 years of fuckin' fast food
|
I've been shot at twice and always talked down to
|
Unappreciated, misunderstood
|
Overworked, underpaid, dodging bullets in the hood
|
One thing I've learned is that this life's not for me
|
I can never be a functional member of society
|
The only thing that's been keeping me sane
|
Is playing these songs cause it eases the pain
|
