The world is a dangrous place, as my mother once would've told me if she bothered.

She'd tell me not to head south in our town beacse it was a bad neighhood if we did not live there.

She'd tell me to wach for cars if she didnt push me in front of them.

And as for my father he'd tell me that to, he'd say to watch out for cars and to grow up strong if he was here.

He'd tell me to find some one that would make me happy if he cared.

Tell me to do better than them if I new them.

And as for my grandparents, they'd tell me stories as I lay in my craddle and watch me as I watch the sheep row by and make sure im raised right. They say all these things if they were here..

And as for my freinds they'd help me threw it all if I had any...

And my family would love me uncoundionly if they had a care in there mind about me.

And my boyfreind he'd say that he loves me and he'd never let me go if he didnt use me like everyone else...

And as for myself I'd tell myself that Im just a girl in a bad place...
