Hard 16
Dady didn't care, mama wasn't there
Jenny slammed the door to her heart
Packed a suitcase of anger
No one tried to save her
She headed for the city that shines in the dark
But the lights fade away 
When you're young  on the streets without a friend
Jeanny learned to survive
Put a price on the nights  that never end

She's hard 16
Soft to the touch but she's seen too much
She's hard 16
Will her soul run dry by 17

The face of innocence doesn't stand a chance
Between the losers, the takers, the lost
So, Jenny never cried
Locked her pain inside
She's trapped in a time bomb 
ready to blow
There will come a day
When the mirror reveals a total stranger
Another lonely runaway in a living hell
she's turning

She's hard 16
Soft to the touch but she's seen too much
She's hard 16
Will her soul run dry by 17

Jenny please come home 
You've got so much to give 
So much life to live
So, come home

She's hard 16
Soft to the touch but she's seen too much
She's hard 16
Will her soul run dry by 17
