Hey girl, you look like
you are broken
Standing by the roadside,
eyes wide, no words spoken
Hey girl, you used to love
with your heart open
Now winter’s come and
you cannot be woken

When you fall, you fall so fast
The highest high never lasts
You fear the future,
you blame the past
You fly your flag of hope
half mast

Hey girl, put down the crack
that you’re smoking
There’s no ones laughing now,
there’s no one is joking
Hey girl, I think that
you are mistaken
To give yourself away,
let yourself be taken

Hey girl, you’re acting like
you’re forsaken
Each day you throw away with
the choices you’re making
Hey girl, don’t you know that
life is sacred
A sky of blue for you,
just for the taking

When you fall, you fall so fast
The highest high never lasts
You fear the future,
you blame the past
You fly your flag of hope
half mast, half mast, half mast
