10 Minute High

Theory Groove

She


She doesn't need it but she won't try


Try to release it


Cuz she thinks she'll die


Dependent on it, for it she'll lie


It's only a 10 minute high


Eyes


That witnessed a father beat on a mother


Witnessed a system take away her only brother


No one ever said that they loved her


She used to shut her eyes and make the pain subside


But not she'g ot her





10 minute high


Just for a little while


She's queen of all the skies


If a hit is bad another one she can buy


Everybody tells her to stop


She would try


But nobody gave her a good reason why





Time has taken it's toll she looks too old for 17, the girl is much too bold


Her heart is cold when it used to be of gold


Her future has no chance to unfold


She's used her body to get her way


Is she ashamed of the games she's played


But her best defense is to block out all the pain


But first she buys her...





10 minute high


Just for a little while she's floating through the sky


What's she gonna do when she no longer can fly?


Is she gonna land on her feet or come down to die?


Or is she gonna just break down and cry?





When she comes down it all becomes too clear


She knows that someday sheould face her fears


But she lost touch with reality and over the years


She's forgotten ow it feels to be real


It's early morning quiet is the street


She lays in silence the conld cement beneath her feet


She passed away and today's her 18th birthday


And all she's left me to say is...





She just had her last 10 minute high


Did she comtemplate that it would take away her life?


She proabably knew, but she had no reason to fight


If only she had known wrong from right


If only she add known


Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye girl, goodbye, bye
