She's so Young
so vulnerable
so unpredictable
she sits in the corner
and sings herself to sleep
her family is broken
her life needs a mend
but what does she know
she's only 11 yrs old
she see's mummy crying
she see's daddy drive away
she can hear the smashing and crashing
as she bury's herself in her covers
she's only 11 for gods sake
they said she'd be ok
she wouldn't have problems
but little did they know
about what was going through her mind
she dreams of running away
maybe to the circus
but she never got that chance
as she got older
she began to understand
that the world is far from fair
and it's far from happy too
she still sits in the corner
and sings herself to sleep
she still wants to run away
but maybe not to the circus this time
she's now 16
she's still young
still vulnerable
but that's ok
society made her this way
she has her problems
but little did the world come to realize
that this little is me
