I'm thirteen My name is unimportant I live and I work on these streets My day is night Retired soldiers and tourists They pay to play and have their way with me
I've seen too much I don't know who to trust I'm so far from my home From the mountains to these streets I'm so scared and alone From the mountains to these streets At the mercy of these thieves
My body's bruised So I take shabu and sniff this glue Anything to ease the pain All the shame I feel Will I ever heal I wonder As I wander in this sad Manilla rain
I've seen too much I don't know who to trust I'm so far from my home From the mountains to these streets I'm so scared and alone From the mountains to these streets And I know I've got to leave
This is not the life I could ever have imagined When I ran away from my family
I'm so far from my home From the mountains to these streets I'm so scared and alone From the mountains to these streets
I've seen too much I don't know who to trust I'm so far from my home From the mountains to these streets I'm so scared and alone From the mountains to these streets From the mountains to these streets
I'm thirteen My name is unimportant I live and I work on these streets
