Fast Lane

Life got so real so fast And I've forgotten a lot of my past But was reminded tonight Of the innocence and light I once had Over the years too many fears Met with too many tears So I'm jaded, faded, and torn With the fury of woman scorned Everyday it's the same game Russian roulette I play One bullet in the chamber and spin This ain't a way to live It's dire straights I hope I have the strength to open the gates To freedom Free to be a happy girl Satisfied with her world And who she see's in the mirror Today it became a little clearer Still don't know where I am But I think I know where I'm going Hold on Hold on Hold on To this plan
