lyrics

She lives in a concrete building
Fluorescent lights through the hall
In the summer, her neighbors just sit outside
In the winter they go nowhere at all
The cops, they patrol in the lobby
They load up on coffee all night

And down the concrete hall
In a concrete room
In her mind, her dream burns bright
And down the concrete hall
In a concrete room
In her mind, her dream burns bright

I'm not really sure about her family
I know that she's close to her mother
She never got along with her father too well
And she kinda puts up with her brother
She dropped out of school
Not for lack of intelligence
She did what she felt was right

chorus

She told me she wants to be a writer
To express what she feels in her heart
And one fine day maybe years from now
The world will say she gave through her art
But tonight in that white-washed building
The cops order coffee all night

chorus

Vocals: Lillian Davila and Mimi Devaney
