vs
Smoked your first joint when you were thirteen
Felt like you'd woken up from a bad dream
Had your first hit of coke when your heart got broke
Were shooting up when you hit the "scene"
vs
Started partying with your elder and betters
The only mail you got were French letters
You were still under age, bird in a gilded cage
You were drowning and kept getting wetter
Chorus:
And you never feel ashamed
When you're high you feel no pain
The world don't seem so strange
When you're high you feel no pain
vs
Now you pole dance for ten bucks an hour
Feel safe cause you've got the power
To fulfil their dreams when you hear their screams
Finish your shift and then take a shower
vs
You have sex with guys for money
Laugh at jokes that just aren't funny
Don't even pretend to cry when they say goodbye
Your day suddenly becomes sunny
Chorus:
And you never feel ashamed
When you're high you feel no pain
The world don't seem so strange
When you're high you feel no pain

Interesting write, Joe. Curious what your intended genre is? Like the chorus, and this line in particular:
You were drowning and kept getting wetter

Hey Travis
Thanks mate. I think I've used the "French letters" bit before in another song.
Cheers
Joe
