"Why have you engraved Doug there?" Jay asks, pointing at my messy engraving.
"Hes called Doug!" I grin.
"What your guitar?" he asks confused.
"Yes."
Jay starts laughing, I elbow him. Jay starts to stroke the guitar and coos at it.
"Hey Dougie!" Jay grins smirking at me.
I roll my eyes, then Mr. Skye swings open the door. He glances at me clutching my guitar, he raises his eyebrows.
"Any reason you got a guitar with you Faith?" Mr. Skye asks confused running his fingers through his thin white hair. I nod. He squints his eyes then lets the class in, I stand at the front of the class, Mr. Skye sits down at his piano looking at me, then points at my chair demanding me to sit down, I take a big breath in. I can't believe I'm doing this, I feel sicker than ever.
I pull out a stool by the piano and seat myself positioning Doug on lap, I start strumming my guitar softly, I feel at ease. I don't even recognise everyone staring at me curiously. I tap my foot gently in time with the music, then the same as I did down at the beach I open my mouth letting the words roll off my tounge.
White lips, pale face
Breathing in snowflakes
Burnt lungs, sour taste
Light's gone, day's end
Struggling to pay rent
Long nights, strange men
And they say
She's in the Class A Team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us
Cause we're just under the upperhand
And go mad for a couple grams
And she don't wanna go outside tonight
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
Or sells love to another man
It's too cold outside
For angels to fly
Angels to fly
Ripped gloves, raincoat
Tried to swim and stay afloat
Dry house, wet clothes
Loose change, bank notes
Weary-eyed, dry throat
Call girl, no phone
And they say
She's in the Class A Team
Stuck in her daydream
Been this way since 18
But lately her face seems
Slowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
The worst things in life come free to us
Cause we're just under the upperhand
