The Pillow |
| A smile for every passing car |
| And when they stop with door ajar |
| She shrugs and whispers que sera |
| And turns her thoughts to the pillow |
| Her face is etched with memories |
| She finds now joy amid the sleaze |
| It`s hard when you`ve been paid to please |
| So she turns her thoughts to the pillow |
| Daylight comes she rests her head |
| The beauty of an empty bed |
| She dreams of happy days instead |
| Of brooding on to-morrow |
| She swapped her dreams of shining knights |
| For pushers, bars and money fights |
| For nameless faces in red light |
| So she turns her head to the pillow |
| Those black eyes don`t hurt any more |
| She`s heard the jokes and jibes before |
| She`s felt the long arm of the law |
| So she turns her head to the pillow |
| Daylight comes … |
| Takeing drugs was not for fun |
| It made her feel like going on |
| But now she hurts when its all gone |
| And she turns her head to the pillow |
| She take a blade and breaks her skin |
| Sweet life force flows from within |
| The white clouds in her head grow dim |
| And she turns her head to the pillow |
