To Amy

Scene of a crime
Stuff of a nightmare
Tattooed and line
None unaware
But daddy don’t know
Thinks she got sober
And left her alone
Now it’s over

But her rise was captivating
And her eyes could hold you still
Every single word from her mouth sounds like pleading
Sounds like wanting out
Out for good

Wasted away
Driven to madness
Soft-porn decay
It’s so good for business
Guess you learned well
From mr. Hathaway
15 floors he fell
In who’s game

Cuz the fall is captivating
How we claw to watch you writhe
Every single word from her mouth sounds like pleading
Seems like someone coulda lifted a hand
But the money’s too good

What is it worth to be a hero?
Nothing on earth has changed
We’ll always burn ‘em alive
Throw ‘em to the lions
Force them to hide from their demons

Cuz the fall is captivating
How we claw to watch you writhe
Every single word from her mouth sounds like pleading
Seems like someone coulda lifted a hand
But the money’s too good
I hope her daddy never lives down the shame
I hope he feels it
Hope he’s cryin’ now
Tears that never dry
