Victim of Another Man’s Crime (3:30)
She’s the shadow of a condor’s wing a siren on the sea
She’ll trap you in her hidden charms then she’ll set you free
There’s danger in her desperateness darkness in her eyes
There’s mystery in her secrets the startle, the surprise
Through the muted fogginess that leads you to her past
Unspeakable violation there too difficult to grasp
But he left her full of emptiness and he left her full of fears
And a thousand kind of nightmares to haunt down the years
CHORUS:
Not me, not mine she’s the victim of another man’s crime
Not me, not mine she’s the victim of another man’s crime
Behind her conversation beyond her sullen smile
Are memories she’s hidden that lie there all the while
Until the moment does arrive a time you cannot touch
For the blanket of forgetfulness covers up her trust
CHORUS:
Now the past cannot escape her she’s aching to be free
But her pain is like a prison some dark eternity
There was never any jury never any trial just the brute determination
Of an animal gone wild.
CHORUS: ~
