Violet Dreams

"Don't Jump"

Ring around the Rosie

Pockets full of Posies

Ashes, Ashes

We all fall down

~

Ring around the Rosie

Girls strut down the walkway

And a 9 year old girl watches from home

And never feels good about herself.

~

Ring around the Rosie

Now she's 14 years old

And carves circles

Into her skin.

~

Ring around the Rosie

Pocket full of posies

Alcoholism and drug addictions

Kills the girl that her parents knew.

~

Ring around the Rosie

Pockets full of Posies

Society lies about her thighs

And the poor girl is gone and dead.

~

I only wish

That I could be Cinderella

And have a wish that my heart makes.

And I would wish that each girl or boy

Would never do the undoable.

~

"Don't jump."

"Don't jump."

"It will get better I swear."
