I'll always remember the leaves that September
And the last time I saw you alive
Your spirit was broken, last words left unspoken
And nobody said goodbye
I knew her story before that day at the quarry
When she told me she feared for her life
He'd gone back to using, and back to abusing
She knew that there wasn't much time
Skipping rocks off the water, a favorite daughter
Full of hurt she was trying to hide
Lost in the madness, awash in the sadness
There was nothing left but her pride
She found the courage for leaving and left them believing
She drowned in the river that night
But the law never found her and the mystery surround her
Nobody thought you would
Nobody thought you would
