the yard was cold and dark



the track was clearly marked

but she was tired, she didn't see

she was just out alone

she wasn't going home

she was going somewhere far away



the train was moving through

as we know the world has to do

everyone will say it was her fault

somewhere a camera's placed

inside this awful place

the accident is about to start



was it a lie?

did it fill your head?

did it entertain?

will you feel alive at the end of it?



when the collision came

she died right away

her body flung almost sixty feet

and as she split in two

was she coming straight for you?

and do you have a camera for a face?

was she your tv show?

was she your video?

a woman's pain never private, always seen



i want to close my eyes

i want to cut the wires

i want a day not made for you to see



when you play it back to me

it feels more like a parody

and that's all i will ever be

it's all i will ever be



i really don't care about it

i don't care if it's cold

i really want to be

the prettiest wreck you've seen



(you broadcast it in 50 states

looped her death on the internet

and a woman's life got cheaper that day

a woman's life got cheaper that day)
