Story behind the song
I read Anthony's lyrics and new I could put some good music to it. It's a tragic story and was easy to get a powerful feel for it.
Lyrics
TOO YOUNG TO BE SO OLD © 2002 Anthony Torres Lyrics, Allan Truesdell Music All rights reserved (Verse 1) Sometimes she doesn’t even feel like cryin’ when she’s lying in a car in a 28-buck motel room or stoned behind a bar (Build 1) Her highs get lower, so others show her More dangerous ways to escape the world Pills and smokes turn to needles and coke Doesn’t anyone know she’s just a girl? (Chorus) She’s too young to be so old Too weak for the streets where she is bought and sold There’s no one to protect her Nobody’s hand to hold Too young to be so old (Verse 2) She had wanted to be an actress And that’s how she found L.A. But the only acting job she does lures the repeat johns her way (Build 2) They all use her, sometimes abuse her Always careful not to show the bruise Nights are long because they're too (ALT: she ain't) strong What’s a 14-year-old woman to do? (Chorus)
