My Baby’s Got A Gun

An eye for an eye, a leg for a leg A shot in the heart doesn't make it unbreak She really didn't wanna make it messy She really, really didn't, but the girl gone cray

The grandfather clock in the parlor strikes midnight, three chimes ringing through the house and authorizing Haley the all-clear. She’s already dressed to withstand the storm outside, the hard part is sneaking out. Jessica is supposed to be the bad Brooke’s daughter – always a new streak of color in her hair and a boyfriend on her arm but Haley is making a quick, easy name for herself lately.

The snow crunching under her shoes, she stops just a moment only three steps off the porch to glance over her shoulder. All the lights in the house are off, she didn’t even dare with the porch light, but her heart still pounds with the anticipation of her misdeed. With the idea of breaking rules and being caught.

But no one knows she’s sneaking out and by morning, when her father comes outside to curse and spit at the snow while he brushes it off the car, her tracks will be covered by more inches of snow. She won’t be caught, no one will suspect a thing.
