A Girl One in Six
I know
Too many people whose no's were ignored
Too many kids forced to grow up too fast
Too many girls with their memories haunted
Too many boys too ashamed to admit
And you ask me why
I draw into myself
Everytime a male walks down the street
Why I look down and walk fast
Why I hold my purse to my chest
It's because I'm afraid
That I'm next
There've been
Too many times that I've gotten lucky
That I run fast
That I catch on
That I'm cautious
But luck is bound to run out
And I'm scared out of my mind
I'll become the next girl one in six
