Karla Faye

A little girl lost, her world full of pain

He said it feels good, she gave him her vein

The dope made her numb and numb felt like free

Until she came down, down, down to a new misery

A junkie, a whore living for the next high

She'd lie cheat and steal, she forgot how to cry

Wide awake for two weeks, shooting heroin then speed

When she killed in cold, cold blood all she felt was her need

It's an eye for an eye, now you're gonna die

A tooth for a tooth, it's your moment of truth

There's no mercy here, your stay is denied

Go on and pray, pray, pray, there's mercy in the sky

Alone in her cell, no dope in her veins

The killer'd become, little girl lost again

She fell to her knees, she prayed she would die

On the cold cement floor, she finally cried

And love came like the wind, love whispered her name

It reached through and held her, lifted her pain

Fifteen years on death row, her faith deeper each day

Her last words were, ?I love you all?

Good-bye, Karla Faye

Now it's an eye for an eye and you're gonna die

A tooth for a tooth, it's your moment of truth

There's no mercy here, your stay is denied

Go on and pray, pray, pray
