Hi everyone
This is a new song about how rich, powerful men control younger women and then throw them on the pile and move onto a younger model. All comments gratefully received.

Holds his trophy wife
With a plastic smile and Cuban heeled boots
He burns his way through life
You were the beauty of the high school
Oiled and golden at the pool
But you gave up everything
Lost it all too soon
First in line for the tennis club pro
It's harder every day
Where did all the good time years go
Lost along the way
White powder, pills and best rose wine
To get you through the day
Adrift beyond the borderline
Where neon turns to grey
You're trapped in a house of mirrors
With walls of polished glass
You can't see beyond them
You never stood a chance
He keeps in your tower
Behind imagined doors
Just a word away from freedom
You can't feel it any more
You're not getting any younger
Only his girlfriends are
He's meaner and quick to anger
Dark glasses and face powder
Can't hide the marks
Small town girl flew too high
Where the air is cold and thin
Like his fingers on your shoulder
You still belong to him
It's time to leave this poison city
Find your way somehow
Everything that once looked pretty
Sure isn't pretty now
Red tail lights on the highway
Streaked by windscreen rain
Pacific ocean coastal sky-way
Takes you home again
