Ignored by fate she was a ward of the state
Adored by her great aunt
Mourned by cormorants on the Red River bed
Long neck bending past a body wrapped and bled
Echo worry's dread
Am I next
Am I the next in line to drown in the Red River wine
To bathe in regret
Released from drift nets
Am I next
Am I the next in line to drown in the Red River wine
Withstand deadly waves
Free rocks from her graves
Am I next
Am I the next in line to drown in the Red River wine
To bathe in regret
Released from drift nets
Ignored by fate she was a ward of the state
Ignored by fate she was adored by her great aunt
Mourned by cormorants on the Red River bed
She was adored by her great aunt
