The Eyes of a Prostitute

Looking at the streets so empty and bare just reminded me of the pain and despair I see a young girl at the corner while she wait For a car to pull up but thats not her date Then she stepped into that car all nicely dressed But will come back tomorrow even more depressed She does it every friday and all the next day As a high school drop out theres a price to pay Selling herself is the only thing left to do It just breaks my heart if only she knew If she could look into my past and see what ive been thru Then she'd be free at last and make her dreams come true
