[00:11.12] She was a smart kid
[00:12.68] Smart girl, soft eyes
[00:14.01] Took in a hard world and saw it
[00:15.60] Fast forward
[00:16.57] She’s moving for money in bars full of tourists
[00:19.19] She’s moved up to massage
[00:20.87] She’s happy, she’s in charge
[00:22.23] Talking to clients
[00:23.59] Adoring the silence
[00:25.09] Of after the session
[00:26.28] Her and the night air
[00:28.01] How to be more than the sum of your parts?
[00:30.44] She knows how they see her but they don’t know half
[00:33.35] I never wanted to be anybody other
[00:36.09] Than the person that I am
[00:37.32] And the things that I discovered
[00:39.20] In the circles that I ran
[00:40.14] Have been difficult and humbling
[00:41.73] Some don’t understand
[00:42.92] But I’m happiest when struggling
[00:44.64] She’s not reluctant to touch
[00:46.62] It’s the one thing
[00:47.70] That must bring us closer together
[00:49.43] It’s such an important endeavour
[00:51.68] To feel tender
[00:53.15] She can’t believe there are some
[00:54.95] Who have never been held in their lives
[00:57.12] Eight months in a boardroom
[00:58.70] Three on the motorway
[01:00.24] One in a small room
[01:01.73] Watching the dawn loom large over grey bricks
[01:04.39] It’s not sordid, it’s sacred
[01:05.99] To open them up to the warmth
[01:08.21] Of her nature; it’s ancient
[01:09.68] She don’t wanna do it forever
[01:11.76] But let’s face it
[01:12.76] Wages are fucked
[01:14.05] And rent is outrageous
[01:15.37] Some might say that she’s being degraded
[01:18.32] But she makes her own mind up
[01:19.99] Knows her own morals
[01:21.19] She don’t care ‘bout how most people see it
[01:23.89] One man’s certain is another man’s squabble
[01:26.68] Life’s to be lived
[01:28.15] Not agreed with
[01:28.99] She’s making her living
[01:30.62] And she’s making it safely
[01:32.14] Better than slaving away in an office
[01:34.82] Or killing herself to fill some boss’s pockets
[01:37.64] Working for peanuts and making them conkers
[01:41.06] I never wanted to be anybody other
[01:43.33] Than the person that I am
[01:44.83] And the things that I discovered
[01:46.21] In the circles that I ran
[01:47.79] Have been difficult and humbling
[01:49.08] Some don’t understand
[01:50.37] But I’m happiest when struggling
[01:51.75] Well all of us walk to our own beat
[01:54.53] And each person’s rhythm is unique
[01:56.23] You can’t hear somebody’s tune
[01:57.98] If you count in your time
[01:59.66] You must count their time
[02:01.75] To enjoy how their mind
[02:03.00] Makes its music
[02:04.19] She fell in love with a suitor
[02:05.78] His name was Pete and while she was at work
[02:08.59] He got stoned and watched snooker
[02:10.31] And when she got home he cooked food for them both
[02:12.86] They were happy and close
[02:14.16] But she could feel it pulling at the threads of their tapestry
[02:16.99] Unravelling all that he knew to be true
[02:20.11] He’s the type to say, ‘This is reality’
[02:22.68] He finds it very hard to alter his view
[02:25.53] But, gradually
[02:26.60] She has felt less and less certain
[02:28.23] That his understanding would stretch
[02:29.99] And now she’s got to justify all her decisions
[02:33.65] But he doesn’t listen, just gets upset
[02:36.49] But she, in her wisdom, is ready to try
[02:39.29] She thinks of his feelings
[02:41.34] She kisses his neck in the evenings
[02:42.99] Tells him, for them she’s a sweet thing
[02:45.31] In-between meetings
[02:46.82] But he has her depth and the whole of her
[02:49.19] But when he’s holding her hand
[02:50.57] It feels less like her hand
[02:52.17] And more like his hand
[02:53.86] And when he’s kissing her face
[02:56.26] It feels less like her face
[02:57.92] And more like his face
[02:59.44] She’s become displaced
[03:00.98] Is she herself?
[03:02.19] Or is she the girl that he wants her to be?
[03:04.85] She tells him, ‘I don’t want to hurt you
[03:07.08] But your judgements are heavy
[03:09.11] And they’re hurting me.’
[03:11.40] I never wanted to be anybody other
[03:13.24] Than the person that I am
[03:14.89] And the things that I discovered
[03:16.21] In the circles that I ran
[03:17.39] Have been difficult and humbling
[03:18.94] Some don’t understand
[03:20.31] But I’m happiest when struggling
