VIETNAM

I can remember / The very first time I cried / How I wiped my eyes / And buried the pain inside / All of my memories / Good and bad that's passed / Didn't even take the time to realize / Staring at the cracks in the walls / 'Cause I'm waiting for it all to come to an end / Still I curl up right under the bed / 'Cause it's takin' over my head / All over again

Do you even know who you are? / I guess I'm trying to find / A borrowed dream or a superstar? / I want to be a star / Is life good to you, or is it bad? / I can't tell anymore / Do you even know what you have?

Lying awake / Watching the sunlight / How the birds will sing / As I count the rings around my eyes / Constantly pushing / The world I know aside / I don't even feel the pain / I don't even want to try / I'm looking for a way to become / The person I dreamt up / When I was 16 / Oh, nothing is ever enough / Ooh, baby it ain't enough / Or what it may seem

Do you even know who you are? / I'm trying to find / A borrowed dream or a superstar? / Everybody wants to be / Is life good to you, or is it bad? / I can't tell anymore / Do you even know what you have? / No

Sorry girl / Tell a tale for me / 'Cause I'm wondering / How you really feel

I'm a lonely girl / I'll tell a tale for you / 'Cause I'm just trying to make / All my dreams come true

Do you even know who you are? / Oh yeah, yeah / A borrowed dream or a superstar? / Oh, I wanted to be a star / Is life good to you, or is it bad? / I can't tell, I can't tell anymore / Do you even know what you have? / I guess not, I guess not

Do you even know who you are? / I'm trying to find / A rising dream, or a falling star? / Oh, I have all these dreams / Is life good to you or is it bad? / I can't tell anymore / Do you even know what you have? / Oh, no, no

Jayme Carter leaned her head against the car window, her eyes taking in her surroundings. They were at a rest stop in the middle of nowhere. She'd been asleep and when she'd awoken they were stopped and her husband was no longer in the car. She sighed, waiting for him to come back from the bathroom. When he returned, it would most likely be her turn to drive. She couldn't believe she'd allowed him to talk her into taking a yearlong road trip around the entire country. It was the most ridiculous thing she'd ever agreed to. Like a stressful "vacation" was going to save them from a fast approaching divorce. Right, Nick. Smart thinkin'.
