lyrics

SEE ‘EM HERE MOST EVERYDAY BUT NEVER TAKE THE TIME TO ASK THEIR NAMES
HANGING ‘ROUND WITH OLDER MEN
MUCH COLDER THAN THE ICE WITHIN THEIR VEINS
GOOD CHURCH LADIES TRY TO SAVE THEIR SOULS SAVE THEM FROM THE SHAME
BUT THAT’S THE VERY THING THE KIDS THEY’RE RUNNING FROM
THEY’RE THE CHILDREN OF CHILDREN OF THE PAIN
THERE’S SOMETHING SO FAMILIAR THERE
THE WAY SHE MOVED THE WAY SHE STARRED ME DOWN
THE TWINKLE IN HER EYE REVEALD IT’S ALL A GAME
I SCREAMED THERE WAS NO SOUND
AIN’T IT STRANGE HOW PAIN IT KEEPS RECURRING
TILL YOUR KARMA GETS RESOLVED
WE’RE ATTRACTED TO THE HEAT
YET ALWAYS ACT SURPRISED WHEN IT BURNS US UP
WHO CAN SAY WHY SHE LEFT THAT DAY
FRECKLING YOUR LIFE JUST LIKE A STAIN
NOW SHE’S HERE WITH THE LOVE YOU TOSSED AWAY
SULLEN SOULS ON FIRE
SHE’S JUST A CHILD OF THE PAIN
