This is a bit of an oldie, we wrote it 10 years ago. It has evolved into it's current arrangement.
Laura Palmer is dead. Go check out a film called fire walk with me.

You got a diary for your 12th birthday
When you were still young and innocent
Nobody knew of your shocking fate
But you tossed yourself right into it

Lost your virginity at the age of 14
With a boy named Bobby but still you wanted more
What is it that little Laura is missing?
Your mind seemed to wander when you two were kissing

(Chorus)
Hey hey now Laura you were the only one
Anyone who knew you could see your life was no damn fun
I light a candle, it's snuffed out like you
Have a slice of cherry pie and a damn good cup of coffee too

By the age of 15 you had a coke habit
If a high was available you surely would grab it
A double life you led, shiny happy Laura
But your dark side lurked, an overwhelming aura

then there were the dreams, you had dreams of a strange man
Who would lead you into the woods by the palm of your hand
the dreams would continue, the man without a name
He invaded your waking hours just the same

chorus

by the age of 16 you had been around
been f***ed by nearly every single man in town
sweet 16 turned out too damn sweet
you paid for your highs inbetween the sheets

you'd been warned by many but you just wouldn't hear
by 17 didn't know your time was near
you sure taught everybody a thing or three
you knew it was wrong but you didn't see

chorus

no-one forsaw where you were headed
by 18 years old you were a deadhead
not digging the band, we were digging your grave
and into the ground your body was laid

it matters not where your road might have led
it matters only that you wound up dead
by why? aside from a few extreme indulgences
you did no-one no harm, it makes no f***ing sense

chorus
