~~Poor Little Girl of Just Sixteen~~

Little girl of just sixteen

Just sixteen

Just sixteen

What has happened to your dream?

What did the men do

To your dream

When they tore you at your seams?

What did I do

To your dream

When you called out

"It's not what it seems"?

Little girl of just sixteen

Just sixteen

Just sixteen

What has happened

Since you were just fourteen

Just fourteen?

What did puberty do

To your dream?

To your dream?

Little girl of just sixteen

What did I do to your dream?

What did the men do to your dream?

Little girl of just sixteen

Sad little girl of just sixteen

Broken girl of just sixteen

What did you do to your dream?

When you grew up, what happened

To your dream?

Poor little girl of just sixteen.

Why are you turning from your dream?

Why is it not your dream?

Can't you stitch closed the seams?

Little girl of just sixteen

Won't you fight for your dream?

Your dream was good, little girl

Little girl of just sixteen

It was worth chasing, little girl

Little girl

Little girl

It was worth fighting for, little girl

Of just sixteen

Poor little girl of just sixteen

Just sixteen

Just sixteen….

Ever since you were fourteen

You haven't been a little girl

With a chance to chase her dream.
