Groove Theory - 10 Minute High Lyrics
SheShe doesn't need it but she won't tryTry to release itCuz she thinks she'll dieDependent on it, for it she'll lieIt's only a 10 minute highEyesThat witnessed a father beat on a motherWitnessed a system take away her only brotherNo one ever said that they loved herShe used to shut her eyes and make the pain subsideBut not she'g ot her10 minute highJust for a little whileShe's queen of all the skiesIf a hit is bad another one she can buyEverybody tells her to stopShe would tryBut nobody gave her a good reason whyTime has taken it's toll she looks too old for 17, the girl is much too boldHer heart is cold when it used to be of goldHer future has no chance to unfoldShe's used her body to get her wayIs she ashamed of the games she's playedBut her best defense is to block out all the painBut first she buys her...10 minute highJust for a little while she's floating through the skyWhat'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 clearShe knows that someday sheould face her fearsBut she lost touch with reality and over the yearsShe's forgotten ow it feels to be realIt's early morning quiet is the streetShe lays in silence the conld cement beneath her feetShe passed away and today's her 18th birthdayAnd all she's left me to say is...She just had her last 10 minute highDid she comtemplate that it would take away her life?She proabably knew, but she had no reason to fightIf only she had known wrong from rightIf only she add knownGoodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye girl, goodbye, bye
