HER INDEPENDENCE
How desperate she was in her well chosen dress
Only fifteen, her life is a mess
Showing her thighs and her pink perky breasts
She would ask for thirty but knew she'd take less
Drawn by the mystery freedom could bring
How dare they say no about a nose piercing ring
Her parents had forbidden just too many things
All the others she knew were adorned with such bling
One night in the dark she would tiptoe away
She was almost grown, so what could they say
She hitchhiked to a city so far away
And was turned out by a pimp the very next day
So the nose ring glitters in the overhead streetlight
Second hand stilettos added inches to her height
She's going to feel old and tired after a long busy night
It crosses her mind , yeah, her parents were right
Another young girl asleep on a table
Some tried to rescue her, no one was able
The last appointment she made had proved to be fatal
Just fifteen years ago she was safe in her cradle
