...rkr's lyrics....

--song lyrics from Rachel's song about/for me--

She's just spinning and laughing
she's so beautifully out of control
table dances and short-lived romances
diamonds the same as coal

a barbie doll face
but a real head case
she's standing on the ledge
gotta remember that cut out dolls
have a perforated edge

whatcha gonna do when the tables turn
whatcha gonna do when i finally learn
that it's my turn
when i learn how to burn

she's a beautiful american princess
a prisoner of war
in this battle between the whores
oh my beautiful american princess,
don't you sell yourself short
take this world, reject it
make it further than your last resort

she didn't know what hit her
when she stepped out on her own
the way we isolate ourselves these days
its hard to find time alone

making choices is always hard
but, beauty, here's the thing
she's still discovering new ones
without knowing what they'll bring

never knowing who to trust
she questions what she believes
when you're busy giving
you don't always have time to recieve

its easy to see whats lacking
in this girl who had it all
struggling to find a hold
before she takes a fall
