Lyrics

In the glare of a neon sign, she laid her body down
The damned walked in beside her, and he laid his money down
He said don't try to scream now, but I want this one to hurt
And tonight my pretty one, I'm gonna get my money's worth

And he said they'd never listen, she said they'd never understand
That I don't do this for pleasure, I just do it cuz I can
I swear I didn't want to, and I swear I didn't know
That things like this could happen, to a 17-year old

( Chorus )
And I've bundled up all of these fears inside
And I've bottled up all of this pain
And no one and nothing, can take this away
But I won't let it happen again - never again

In the haze of a smokey room, he chokes that bottle down
It's been a month since he saw her face, underneath the bloodstained gown
And he thinks about that little girl, and the one he has at home - and wonders
What if that was my little girl, walking down that road alone

( Chorus )
And I've bundled up all of these fears inside
And I've bottled up all of this pain
And no one and nothing, can take this away
But I won't let it happen again - never again - never again, no

Maybe I'm just crazy, or the devil got inside
Either way my soul is gone, and i'll end this all tonight
The one hand throws the whiskey, and the other throws the gun
As he cries out to the heavens, I am not my father's son

( Chorus )
And I've bundled up all of these fears inside
And I've bottled up all of this pain
And no one and nothing, can take this away
But I won't let it happen again - never again - never again, no, no
