Lost Girls

We weren't meant to do much, kids in the system that nobody loved
Sittin' in bus stations, sun comin' up
Nowhere to sleep, so we need to find drugs
All we had was us screamin', "Don't give a fuck"
Barely 15, but we had to grow up
Arms full of cuts and nobody to trust
How can you have dreams when you're us?

I was always singin' with the lost girls (lost girls)
The runnin' from the cops, seen a lot, girls
Can I crash at your house? Nowhere to go, girls (go, girls)
Now, they're escorts or overdose, girls

Oh, you thank yourself for a little more liquor, ooh-ooh
Now, you're homesick for a place that you've never known, ooh-ooh

All we know is climbin' fences in the dark (don't give up, it's not over)
And all we know is growin' up was way too hard (don't give up, it's not over)
And all we know is we miss who we lost in the park (don't give up, it's not over)
And all we know is perfect people that we aren't (don't give up, it's not over)

Nowhere to go, but found someone to boot
Someone got drugs, so tonight is the move
Got no one to be and got nothin' to do
Barely 15 when we dropped out of school
No one to care and nobody to call
Wearin' whatever we steal from the mall
Lost a few on the way, paint their names on the walls
I swear that it wasn't our fault

I was always singin' with the lost boys
The runnin' from the cops, done a lot, boys
They're out there sellin' rocks, poppin' off, boys
Now, they're doing drugs, or they got shot, boys

Oh, the things you'll do to make time pass quicker, ooh-ooh
Now, you're dope-sick in a highway motel alone, ooh-ooh

All we know is climbin' fences in the dark (don't give up, it's not over)
And all we know is growin' up was way too hard (don't give up, it's not over)
And all we know is we miss who we lost in the park (don't give up, it's not over)
And all we know is perfect people that we aren't (don't give up, it's not over)
And all we know is climbin' fences in the dark

(We weren't meant to do much, kids in the system that nobody loves)
All we know is growin' up was way too hard
(The sun comin' up with nowhere to sleep, so we need to find drugs)
All we know is we miss who we lost in the park
(Screamin', "Don't give a fuck," barely 15, but we had to grow up)
All we know is perfect people that we aren't
(Arms full of cuts, and how can you have dreams when you're us?)
