Bilde Topp

no fix

Tell me will you lend me some time
Need to speak what’s on my mind
Said of course, -she’s still just a child
Pale her face, and skin so mild

Time adds to pain
She won’t be happy again
All hopes and dreams are gone
She is needed by none.

Every day she’ll dress up for school
Best of clothes – try acting cool
Still not seen, the world can be cruel
Ends up like the biggest fool

Time adds to pain
She won’t be happy again
There is no cure nor fix
Nothing will do the trick

The unpretender she is
Knows for her there is no bliss
Not accepted – tries to get by
Fills a no-space – small and shy

Time adds to pain
She won’t be happy again
Rejections fill her day
She just can’t see a way

Angels listen – please hear us pray
For a child that needs to say
She has lots to offer to give
Got a future - life to live

Time adds to gain
She will be happy again
She’ll do her very best
And then we’ll do the rest
