Confessions of a night lady


Calls came in  For a cost of living  Bathed myself clean  Damaged and torn apart within  A kiss from a stranger  Romance that came with danger  Drank that pain away  Got high not to see the light of day  Night fall came too quick  Heel boots on for a job that made me sick  I got paid by dawn  Still alive but my body I mourn
