Listen to it all the way through, don't judge it straight away.
Just some general facts...
The song's a story of a girl who takes drugs to get away from her hard life (lyrics by me).

LYRICS
You've had a rough day
There's not a lot to say
They're getting in your way
And nothing's changing
You lock the door
As if you can ignore
The never-ending war
But that won't help
Your mind is dead
From watching skies turn red
You're locked outside your head
You need some (closure)
Jenny felt the pressures
Of her bedroom light glow
She dreamt of life
She dreamt a dream that she would never know
Your heartbeat races
Your face is
White as your eyes
Well then it all feels better in time
You're flying high
(And there's no one here to stop you)
You're flying high
(But they're never gonna get you now)
Now as time goes by
(And there's no one here to stop you)
You're flying high
(But the future's gonna get you)
You're in the sky
Watching time go by
There's no one here to try
To try and stop you
You dance about
Shouting things out loud
Your burning cloud
It's turned white again
You trip and fall
Head to the wall
Steps down the hall
And someone saves you
But then one day
You'll get this way
Without being saved
But you don't care
