Pretty Grim Girl
Pretty little grim girl
No one knew her well
She spent long days
And cold hard nights
All alone in her cell
Pretty little grim girl
In her tattered dress of lace
With her dark make-up
She wore to hide
The scars upon her face
Pretty little grim girl
Cried tears of cold regret
Lying in a pool of blood
Waiting for an answer
To her pain she'd soon forget
Pretty little grim girl
Misunderstood by all
A criminal, a nightmare
They mocked her
This girl began to fall
Pretty little grim girl
Hid her feelings well
Showed no pain when they mocked her
But it all bled through
Once alone in her cell
Pretty little grim girl
Had no will for life
She soon would end it all
With the icy fate
Of a cold, sharp knife
Pretty little grim girl
Dancing in the rain
As the blood poors down
She finally found an answer
An answer to her pain
Pretty little grim girl
Threw her life a way
Thought it would erase the pain
But only brought despair
To yet another dying day
