lyrics

[Verse 1]

This bout a lady was crazy back in her youth,
the quiet one in the room til she found a spoon and was cooking it
You know her life there’s some writer could write a book for it,
the type to take your lighter go hide it and you help you look for it
I used to lust her an Angel must have conceived her
she struggled much were her trust but she loved to shoot up that heroin
..Did other stuff with her money plenty of opiates
Just to cope with the pain but she rarely fucked w that Marylin
we broke the rules, We used to go to the same school
..girl of mystery, 5th period history,
I used to watch her and fell in love with her looks
she rarely showed for the class and barely opened a single book
...She felt abandon.. just imagine
She’s chasing the dragon just to escape the shoes that she stand in
...That couldn’t go well its sad but fuck it oh well
Hope fell, Partying, drinking, smoking at hotels

[Verse 2]

A decade later I still remained her admirer
Seen her tried to get clean she would work a job and they’d fire her
went back to shooting her body constantly bruising
Just losing her life tired of doing dope and abusing
I moved to Colorado, buried in bottles
I wasn’t doing no diesel but still I knew I go hard
I heard they got her they caught her up but her bond
Was set up so high that now she would owe a debt to a John
The story worsens her parents filed a missing person..
Last was seen with a pimp who kept her working for certain
Certainly not the life That you would have in sight
Its hard to fight when your whole life’s feeding this appetite
i watched the news it was sad and had me confused
the questions flowing but never knowing the full truth
i think she felt doomed, destined to leave this hell soon
They found her dead bound to a bed in a motel room
