Hopeless Hopeful in the Hall

All she does is walk around
With her little chin held high,
Although she’ll never admit it,
Her life is all a lie.

She’s a full time sell out,
And it’s sad because she knows,
She’s told herself all that matters is
You, appearance, and clothes.

Dresses her double zero hips
In clothes with a reputation,
Trying to get one for herself,
Trying to master the art of flirtation.

Spends her weekends at big parties
Because that’s where you get seen.
Little does she know, she’s headed for
A lifetime’s peak at a small sixteen.

The pot, the pills, the everything’s:
“Please, just one more drink!”
Too busy sending the boys a wink,
Can’t comprehend how fast she’ll sink.

She puts on her perfect act,
But her smile isn’t all that’s fake,
When all she craves is your approval,
She’ll do whatever it takes.
