Now she's white around her nose

Eyes like moons and torn up clothes

No matter how hard I try

She never smiles unless she's high

Sleep all day and up all night

Her future used to be so bright

She was the best I've ever known

It's all so wrong now

Like a moth she's flying right into the light

Towards the end of that elusive tunnel

Those needle marks were never there when she was young

Hope come tomorrow, better days aren't far away

No!

Makeup running down her cheek

She can't remember the past week

Scoring highs and hitting peaks

Never coming down is all she sees

Asleep all day and up all night

Her future used to be so bright

She was the best I've ever known

It's all so wrong now

Like a moth she's flying right into the light

Towards the end of that elusive tunnel

Those needle marks were never there when she was young

Hope come tomorrow, better days aren't far away

Daddy's little girl

She could have seen the world

Just lying on the floor

All messed up in her black gown

With a bottle of Jack down

She's all messed up from her bottle of blackout

Daddy's little girl

Has something white around her nose

With moonlike eyes and trashy clothes

She's got a bottle of Jack down

She feels so good

She's going to blackout

Like a moth she's flying right into the light

Towards the end of that elusive tunnel

Those needle marks were never there when she was young

Hope come tomorrow, better days aren't far away

Like a moth she's flying right into the light

Towards the end of that elusive tunnel

Those needle marks were never there when she was young

Hope come tomorrow, better days aren't far away
