Larry wrote this song because he's looking for the deeper stories in people's lives. Nobody in their right mind would choose to do bad to themselves. What's the pain behind what you see?

Lyrics
Jenny
Words and Music by Larry Hagner
Jenny was a small time homecoming queen
Living life for the party scene
She's not very careful 'bout the people she meets
No time for God
She's running wild in the streets
Chorus
Who - o - o - oh
Jennie's running out of time
Who - o - o - oh
Jenny doesn't see the signs
Who - o - o - oh
It's time for her to change his mind
Who - o - o - oh
Before she gets left behind
Left behind
Tommy's such a tough guy
Roams in the gang
He's pushing hard
Trying to get away from his pain
He thinks he'll escape the violence he sees
But he's a bullet away from eternity
Who - o - o - oh
Tommy's running out of time
Who - o - o - oh
Tommy doesn't see the signs
Who - o - o - oh
It's time for him to change his mind
Who - o - o - oh
Before he gets left behind
Left behind
Bridge
You try to run, but you just can't hide
From decision you make every day of your life
Every breath is a gift, every moment's a prize
You can't afford to on the wrong side
Who - o - o - oh
Jenny's running out of time
Who - o - o - oh
Tommy's running out of time
Who - o - o - oh
It's time for them to change their mind
Who - o - o - oh
Before they get left behind
