Josie's Last Call

You frolic with playful abandon Oblivious to obligation Such wobbly legs prove hard to stand on Chameleon charmed by temptation I don't know why your halo's all bent Your soul's complaint argues so brassy Can't pay rent when your money gets spent Once vibrant jewels bloodshot and glassy Butterfly flapping with tart contempt Degenerate goals rot away hope Your daughter grieves with each failed attempt She cries each time you roll down that slope Cheap glutton for wanton attention That hot spotlight withers your pert face The clock chimes with mortal dissension Until there's nothing left to erase Snuffing your fire while quenching your thirst You disconnect from honest matters The mirror displays why you've been cursed Indolence shreds your core to tatters
