[00:08.42]When there weren't any parties,
[00:10.69]she'd park by the quarry,
[00:12.81]walk into the woods,
[00:14.74]until she came to a clearing,
[00:16.93]where townies would gather,
[00:19.17]and drink until blackout,
[00:21.39]smoke cigs until sick,
[00:23.28]pack bowls and then pass out,
[00:25.64]windows wide open to let the hard rock in,
[00:30.02]this was the rage it didn't need much convincing,
[00:34.17]the girls gave her glares,
[00:36.59]but the boys were quite pleasant,
[00:38.86]to be totally honest,
[00:40.88]they didn't seem much different.
[00:43.02]when there weren't any parties,
[00:45.09]some time she'd party with townies.
[00:49.33]
[01:04.57]out on the parkways, after the parties,
[01:09.01]it was always arousing when they'd rev up their engines,
[01:13.39]it's hard to describe, so she kept it a secret,
[01:17.59]the girls that she lived with,
[01:19.94]they knew nothing about it,
[01:22.00]that night of the fight, and the butterfly knife,
[01:26.46]was the first night she spent,
[01:28.49]with that one guy that she liked,
[01:30.66]she gave him a ride to some kid's house in cleveland,
[01:34.95]he stayed there for two weeks,
[01:37.23]the cops finally found him.
[01:39.41]he didn't seem that different,
[01:41.84]except for that blood on his jacket.
[01:45.59]
[01:48.42]he didn't seem that different,
[01:50.39]except for maybe his haircut.
[01:56.13]he didn't seem much different.
[02:05.60]they didn't seem that different,
[02:08.03]up until this one little incident.
[02:13.63]they didn't seem much different.
[02:16.25]
[02:17.77]now the cops want to question everyone present,
[02:22.58]they parade every townie in town to the station,
[02:26.88]but no one says nothing,
[02:29.11]and they can't find the weapon,
[02:31.28]the girl takes the stand and swears she was with him,
[02:35.61]her father's lawyer does most of the talking.
[02:40.91]
[02:48.45]she's sick of the questions,
[02:50.95]sick of the concept,
[02:53.00]of justice and fairness,
[02:55.17]who the hell who cares who gets caught in the middle,
[02:59.44]she smokes and she ponders this riddle,
[03:03.31]
[03:05.75]when one townie falls in the forest,
[03:09.12]can anyone hear it?
[03:13.34]when one townie falls...
[03:23.04]when one townie falls in the forest,
[03:26.99]does anyone notice?
[03:29.78]
[03:36.40]one drop of blood on immaculate(something)
[03:40.97]mom don't know where her girl is,
[03:44.51]sophomore accomplice in a turtleneck sweater,
[03:48.75]dad do you know where your kids are,
[03:53.11]sniffing at crystal in cute little cars,
[03:57.50]getting nailed against dumpsters behind townie bars,
[04:01.81]it's a cute little town with streets and cafes,
[04:06.17]the fronts all seem nice, she was getting good grades,
[04:10.61]but when she came home for Christmas,
[04:13.30]she just seemed distant and different.
