There She Goes

She's a typical, pretty L.A. girl
One from around the way
Her life imploded in on her
on a stormy, rainy day.

She came to me - torn, pissed, greedy
Not even knowing she'd arrived
Didn't know her bags were packed
For this journey to survive

She's scared to leave the comfort
Scared to leave the known
Girl! Leave that teddy bear behind
And face forward - towards your home

Her transformation turned to trash
First time she glanced toward home
It ain't easy getting where you're headed
But, stay true, girl! and you'll never be alone

She's doubled over. Get up Girl!
Fell flat on her face
Try again. I promise you
Get back into the race!

She's scared to leave the comfort
Scared to leave the known
Girl! Leave that teddy bear behind
And face forward - towards your home

Most people are too scared to try
To seek their destiny
They'd rather be puppets of their peers
than the people they were meant to be

There she goes, the girl who risked
the verdict of their creed
There she goes, the girl who'll live
the life she's meant to lead.
