A Teenager's Prayer
Temptations are knocking there outside my door.
Lend me the strength to keep my feet on the floor.
Don't let me surrender my life for nothing more than a thrill.
Show me a friend that doesn't come in a pill.
Chase away the people that tell me nothing but lies.
Help me to remember when I was nine.
Don't let my body inject and surrender my soul.
Don't want the poison that's smoked in a bowl.
Don't let me jump only they tell me I can fly.
My life's barely started...
Please help me...
I'm not ready to die.
