A little girl with read smeared lipstick reflecting in her mom's dresser mirror
Virgin Pale skin shivering in her favorite pajamas
Kisses and goodnight hugs from mommy
From the first bus stop waves, to the very last
Where have all these times gone
That little girl has grown up
The reflection is gone from a sad mom's dresser mirror
The skin that may still shiver inside her pajamas is not as pure
Shes no longer there to get goodnight hugs and kisses
To busy handling her own business
The bus no longer has to stop at the driveway
It wouldn't have anybody to pick up anyway
These are things i think of everyday
I manage to fit a thought or two in between tears
I've fallen in and out of love
Ive even last and gained loved ones
It feels like I cant take it
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do
My head is spinning and my mind races to
Day after day it gets worse and worse
My problems are adding up
I wanna go back to the little girl with smeared lipstick
Just one more goodnight kiss mommy
Lay ME down to rest in peace
RIP CASEY
