about

I felt inspired to write a shitty sloppy song after watching the documentary, Aileen Wuornos: The Life and Death of a Serial Killer. I felt really torn inside between the fact that she murdered people, and the other fact that she was exploited her whole life which ended in a really shitty trial as well.
I decided to write from the perspective of the man who molested her as a child.

lyrics

Oh Aileen, you gotta get a hold of me,
because you know I can save you
Oh you know I can save you.
Remember me?
We used to hide in the trees.
And I told I could save you
Oh, I told I could save you.

Just sit and watch the flowers go by,
So high, like the air in the sky
Like we're dead already.
Like we're dead already.

*Unbalanced harmonica screams*

Metal 'round your hands
You killed 9 men.
And no one can save you
'cept the judge and the court rule.

Oh Aileen, you've got the better part of me
And you know I will miss you
Oh, you hope I will miss you.

Say goodnight
You're gonna sleep for a while
And no one could save you
Oh no one can save you

Goodnight
Goodnight
Goodnight
Goodnight
