What Little Girls Are Made Of
sugar and spice, everything nice?
hmm, what’s your price?
WE’VE GOT IT MADE IN AMERICA
not just far far on the other side of the
ocean blue
yup, but we’ve made it here in the U-S-of-
A, too
CATASTROPHE
that says it in a word
but the statistics are often quite blurred
PRESCRIPTION FOR DISASTER
run-aways, throw-aways, other exploitables, too
bystanders ignorantly apathetic of what they’re going through
DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN
slick predators lurk in broad daylight
exquisitely enticing by fraud, force, or fright
LOOK BETTER NAKED
I know you can do it, my pretty girlfriend
you’ll make me so happy (and a fortune), in the end
A Woman’s Worth
whatcha got from last night?
baby, don’t make me beat you again, alright?!
I Don’t Know How She Does It
but she’s his bottom line
ya, she keeps the rest of us towing the line!
DON’T MAKE A SCENE
just do what you’re told
otherwise his love he might withhold
GUILT | ONLY LOVE | FIVE PAST MIDNIGHT | THREE WISHES
it’s the same night after night, day after day
try to stay alive, but for sale or display
HOMESICK
do I even have a home to be sick for?
or is that in part why they now call me a whore?
TWILIGHT CHILD
living in the shadows
don’t look like a victim, they suppose
RUNNING BLIND | DREAM COUNTRY | SHATTERED | A CERTAIN SLANT OF LIGHT
nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
nowhere to turn, cuz even I’m deceived inside
I’ll Be Seeing You | Remember Me | Let Me Call You Sweet Heart
you look pretty young to be out here like this
come with me and I’ll give you a better life miss
STREET TRENDS
the idea of leaving, of believing, of reassuring, oh so alluring
but pimp’s mom’s watching my baby, my returning ever insuring
HELL’S CARTEL
they’ve got their hands in everything
and I’m strung out, part of their ring
LITTLE ALTARS EVERYWHERE
on a corner here, a hotel room there
now a website, and another to compare
YOU BELONG TO ME | AMERICAN DREAMS | TOXIN | FIREBIRD
keep living “the life”
keep putting up with this strife
TIME EXPIRED
but how long can this go on?
they say the average is six years, then gone
SUICIDE SEASON
not sure this is a life worth living
don’t know how much longer I can keep on giving
THE LIES THAT BIND
these cords around my neck
are they any worse than the ones that keep my mind “in check”?
A Tangled Web
it’s just all so confusing
who to believe, who’s abusing?
PEACE LIKE A RIVER | “P” IS FOR PERIL | SUMMER ISLAND | THE INCUMBENT
perhaps I’ll fall asleep and never wake
finally at peace from this perpetual heartbreak
NEVER LOVE A STRANGER
never love again
never trust men
The Wanting
but something cries deep down inside me
something screaming I just want to be free
FAMILY POLITICS
ya just like politics and religion
sex and money aren’t to be spoken of, but in a hushed smidgen
Keep It Simple, Stupid
just do what your told
don’t ask questions, stay controlled
The Accidental Bride
accidental or on purpose?
are you just feeding me lip service?
Love & Desire & Hate
don’t know what to think anymore
don’t even have feeling left to ignore
THAT DEVIL’S NO FRIEND OF MINE
but I guess this one thing I do know
so long I’ve lived in the stupor of status quo
RAGING HEART
at least this anger proves I can feel again
but you want me to forgive what and when?!
THE RESCUE | CODE TO ZERO | MY MOTHER’S DAUGHTER | EVEN STEVEN
how ‘bout I actually get stable first
cuz literally everything in my life, in my head, is turned upside-down, reversed
WHEN GOD WHISPERS YOUR NAME
then you know there’s hope
gives me something I need this day to cope
Breaking Through
a new dawning
found I have true belonging
Peace, Love & Healing
one day at a time
will take a while to thoroughly heal from this crime
The Meaning of Life
oh, so much more than I was told
I can be my own person, live bold!
CHANGE
in a direction I couldn’t even then imagine
still living on earth, but it’s actually now heaven
CLOSE TO YOU
freedom, new life, here and now
will you let Me show you how?
