ALKALINE TRIO lyrics : "Sadie"

You're on your own my little nightmare, you cannot stay here
It's far too bright for you
If they attack you just lay there,

Play dead dear, it's your only hope of pulling through.

And seconds they seem like a lifetime.

A dream, recurring, a dream that can't come true.
And they'll pin it all on you
After all you've been put through.


"Sadie G. she's crazy, see?"
That's what the white coats say.

Now Ms. Susan A. you're losing
Every opportunity to put us all away.


Now run along my little nightmare.
Your job is done here.
You've scared them all to death.

If they revive them just sit there.
Just smile dear. Make them thankful for every breath.


This sentence may seem like a lifetime,
A scream, that's curdling the blood they found on you.
And your knives and clothing too.

Charlie's broken .22

"Sadie G. she's crazy, see?"

That's what the white coats say.
Now Ms. Susan A. you're losing
Every opportunity.


Well they found you and
They shipped you up the river

The same way that you've bound and gaged.
You've shot and stabbed.
You tried to set them free, but they've thrown away the keys.


Susan Atkins a.k.a. Sadie Mae Glutz:
"He represented a god to me that was so beautiful that I'd do

anything for him. I'd do anything for god. Even murder, if I
believed it was right, how could it not be right if it was done
with love? I have no regret for doing what was right to me. I

have no guilt in me"

Whoa [x4]
