take her place

she stands on her feet and she bleeds
the pain never goes away
all the things she has seen
will haunt her the rest of her life
and when i hear her on the phone
so drunk and so stoned
trying, dying, to drown her life away
when i hear her on the phone
trying to hide her pain
all i want to do
all i want to do
is somehow take her place.
