Annie and Ricky - Bita and the Botflies
[00:31.63] Her mom worries that she's 20
[00:34.47] Borderline homeless
[00:39.98] She understands
[00:41.73] She feels helpless at the moment
[00:48.51] Every night wondering
[00:50.52] Every night questioning
[00:52.28] What she could erase
[00:53.78] From her memory bank?
[00:57.54] Annie and Ricky
[00:59.06] They're dependent on each other
[01:01.31] Injecting on the other
[01:03.07] Looking out for
[01:05.58] Annie and Ricky
[01:07.10] Could have done something better
[01:08.94] But they're both addicted to
[01:12.23] The temporary death
[01:15.50] ~~~
[01:21.79] Annie steals from her folks
[01:24.10] Grabs anything that's worth something
[01:29.61] She sells for cheap
[01:31.13] Avoids the pain and the itch
[01:33.15] And gets the next fix
[01:37.94] Every night scavenging
[01:39.70] Every night questioning
[01:41.70] How she could escape
[01:43.24] All her broken parts?
[01:47.01] Annie and Ricky
[01:48.52] They're dependent on each other
[01:50.77] Injecting on the other
[01:52.53] Looking out for
[01:55.04] Annie and Ricky
[01:56.55] Could have been something better
[01:58.56] But they're both addicted to
[02:01.82] The temporary death
[02:05.86] ~~~
[03:22.80] Her mom said, "Don't go there"
[03:26.58] Her friends say, "We still care"
[03:30.60] But Ricky says, "You're safe here"
[03:34.39] Her pops said, "I've been there"
[03:37.22] And you'll regret, truly regret
[03:41.50] Every bit of pleasure and rest
[03:45.53] And you'll regret, truly regret
[03:49.28] Every bit of pleasure and rest
[03:56.43] Annie and Ricky
[03:57.94] They're dependent on each other
[04:00.20] Injecting on the other
[04:02.21] Looking out for
[04:04.46] Annie and Ricky
[04:05.98] Could have been forever
[04:08.10] But one met
[04:11.37] A permanent end
[04:13.89] ~~~
[04:20.17] Fast forward to 40
[04:22.76] Holes in her skin and mem'ry
[04:28.57] No need to recall
[04:30.07] The time her lover overdosed
[04:33.83] ~~~
