always have to be the girl
who beats the odds.
but what if the odds
are never in your favor?
what if the life you live
just isn't your flavor?
what if the mountain's too high
the winds too strong
the current too tough
the desert too rough
what if the knot is too tight
you can't cut the noose
as it strangles,
can't wrangle free
what if the cuffs are locked shut
and the key thrown away
the time keeps on ticking
your stomach sickening
she always beats the odds,
just a girl.
