Lyrics

She lost her mind It was an answer that she would never find A life that she could never sign away If you see her, Will you tell her not to play the fool If she goes downtown, if she's outta school today Around her shoulders, There was a dark black mark sunk into her skin She wrestled with a lotta primordial sins in her day I hear her screamin' in the night A drop of blood, another sin to fight She's pushin' with all her might With her reflection in the dark moonlight And the ugliness is just in sight I hear her cryin', In the room against her will She was holdin' back the tears, Holdin' through those years after all It never fails, When these cowards blow the wind from your sails And you run on home with your tail between your legs We used to dance, It was a different time when you knew romance When you looked so fine, you had a different stance and way I hear her screamin' in the night A drop of blood, another sin to fight She's pushin' with all her might With her reflection in the dark moonlight And the ugliness is just in sight I hear her cryin', When the messenger comes along And he sings his sad, sad song And tells her, "Oh no" baby You were wrong She lost her mind It was an answer that she would never find A life that she could never sign away If you see her, Will you tell her not to play the fool If she goes downtown, if she's outta school today Around her shoulders, There was a dark black mark sunk into her skin She wrestled with a lotta primordial sins in her day I hear her screamin' in the night A drop of blood, another sin to fight She's pushin' with all her might With her reflection in the dark moonlight And the ugliness is just in sight
