another statistic

                                                      ANOTHER STATISTIC



I don't want to be another statistic

some suicidal teen.

who makes a choice to kill herself.

when the world just seems to mean.

so she can't go on with life.

or so to her it seems.

reality has fallen short.

and so many dreams



I don't want to be another statistic

some pregnant little girl

who meets this great guy.

and decide to give sex a whirl.

she was only fifteen.

but it felt so right.

she thought they'd be together,

for more then just one night.



I don't want to be another statistic 

some kid stung out on crack

who started at a party

but now he can't turn back

first cigarettes and alcohol

now meth,crack,and cocaine,

he's been smoking it so long.

that now hes gone insane.
