[Intro]
I feel a fading here
I feel it everyday
It's just a shaking fear
That hits when I awake
This pain has found me here
Always and all to waiting
And if I disappear into your hiding place
[Verse 1]
She had a mental problem
She couldn't concentrate
She was her own delusion
She was her own mistake
She did a lot of acid
That put the voices down
And one day at her birthday
They found her hanging upside-down
They say she lived her life on the avenue
They say she cried from the weight of her spit
They claim they were the only ones that she ever knew
Ah, but why are they weeping now?
When she was alive they were not around
They were locked into their own abyss
[Verse 2]
We met out in the gutter
We shared a smoke or two
I told about my mother
She showed me her tattoo
We went out through the city
Got lost in Fulton Town
And one day at her birthday
They found her hanging upside-down
They say she lived her life an American
They say she who*ed away for pills
They claim they offered her their helping hand
But their talk's all the same to me
They call themselves her family
It just makes me ill
