Story behind the song
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.
Lyrics
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 fucked 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 fucking sense chorus
