	When there weren't any parties she'd park by the quarry
	Walk into the woods until she came to a clearing
	Where townies would gather and drink until blackout
	Smoke cigs 'til they're sick, pack bowls and then pass out
	Windows wide open to let the hard rock in
	This was the rage it didn't need much convincing
	The girls gave her glares, but the boys were quite pleasant
	To be totally honest, they didn't seem much different
	When there weren't any parties
	Some time she'd party with townies
	Out on the parkways, after the parties
	It was always arousing when they'd rev up their engines
	It's hard to describe, so she kept it a secret
	The girls that she lived with, they knew nothing about it
	That night with the fire and the butterfly knife
	Was the first night she spent with that one guy that she liked
	She gave him a ride to some kid's house in
	ClevelandHe stayed there for two weeks, the cops finally found him
	He didn't seem that different except for the blood on his jacket
	He didn't seem that different except for maybe his haircut
	He didn't seem much different
	They didn't seem that different up until this one little incident
	They didn't seem much different
	Now the cops wanna question everyone present
	They parade every townie in town to the station
	But no one says nothing and they can't find the weapon
	The girl takes the stand and swears she was with him
	Her father's lawyers do most of the talking
	She's sick of the questions, sick of the concept of justice and fairness
	Who the hell who cares who gets caught in the middle
	She smokes and she ponders this riddle
	When one townie falls in the forest, can anyone hear it?
	When one townie falls
	When one townie falls in the forest does anyone notice?
	One drop of blood on immaculate
	KedsMom don't know where her girl is
	Sophomore accomplice in a turtleneck sweater
	Dad do you know where your kids are?
	Sniffing at crystal in cute little cars
	Getting nailed against dumpsters behind townie bars
	It's a cute little town with streets and cafés
	The fronts all seem nice, she was getting good grades
	But when she came home for
	ChristmasShe just seemed distant and different

	When there weren' t any parties she' d park by the quarry
	Walk into the woods until she came to a clearing
	Where townies would gather and drink until blackout
	Smoke cigs ' til they' re sick, pack bowls and then pass out
	Windows wide open to let the hard rock in
	This was the rage it didn' t need much convincing
	The girls gave her glares, but the boys were quite pleasant
	To be totally honest, they didn' t seem much different
