Falling
She was 2 years old on the living room floor
walking around with out a care in the world
that little girl fell the hardest
over the leg of an old coffee table
leaving nothing but a scratch.
She as 6 years old on her brand new bike
no training wheels today & shes riding around
that little girl fell the hardest
over a crack in the pavement
leaving nothing but a scratch.
She was 10 years old, running in the yard
feeling free and proud to be in double-digits
that little girl fell the hardest
over a stone among the grass
leaving nothing but a scratch.
She was 14 years old with a new crowd of friends
Drugs were her passion and she couldn't control it
that poor little girl fell the hardest
when Mother found her 'stash'
leaving nothing but a scratch and a lesson learned.
She was 15 years old sitting with along time friend
so caught in the moment, now shes all grown up
that little girl fell the hardest
when he never called again
and when he bragged to all his friends
leaving nothing but a poor little girl with a shattered little heart.
walking around with out a care in the world
