Everybody is standing around Talking about the accident, Josie’s on the corner waiting for the bus, Wondering where the time went, She doesn’t care that a family might be dead, She has a plan to get away that’s stuck in her head.
Her parents stuffed her in closet Then went out searching for drugs, She has never felt any part of love, She’s never had any kisses or hugs, Josie doesn’t care about an ever-changing earth, She just wants to get away to find out what she’s worth.
She once heard of Jesus, but to her The name is just a mystery, She knows not what prayer is, She never learned the history, Josie doesn’t care if the scenery is black, She just wants to away and never come back.
She left her brother in the basement Writing about abuse of the government, She wandered across the city, not looking back, Doesn’t care about anyone or how their time is spent, Josie’s tired of empty liquor bottles thrown in her face, She has a mind full of bad memories she wants to erase.
Now the time has come for her to decide, The junkies call her names as she walks the street, Make a break for anywhere to run and hide, Josie doesn’t care for anyone she may meet, I never found out what happened in her case, All I saw was the poster, said missing and her face.
