I stumble through these days -
Tripping, I am slipping
crashing into the hours.
The clock still ticks its way
to morning with no batteries.
Did you think you could stop time?

Stupid girl.

And she only sees shades of black and grey.
And she thinks she might be a lost cause.
And what can I tell her about that?

Stupid girl.

She walks with her head down.
Do not look at her.
Pretend you cannot see her.

Stupid girl -
she walks with her head down.
She never saw the rainbow above her.

Stupid girl.

She never looked at the sky,
she missed the multitude of colours,
They were there for her,

Stupid girl -
Crazy what you could have had.
Crazy what you could have done.

Crazy what you could have been.

Stupid girl.

The rainbow's gone.
