about

Life of a typical plastic bottle. Enough said.
// September 2010

lyrics

She looks at the others that surround her
Wonders how they can all be of use to this world

Her life begins now, filled to its peak
She is wanted, she is needed; that's all she seeks

Once, then she was chucked away
"Oh, that's it?" she grieves -- it hasn't even been a day

She's back with her companions of a moment ago
And now they wonder if their beauty was all but a show

Just so you know, they can't break down like you do
So save yourself today to save the green and the blue
