[Verse 1]
Joy was her name
A life unwed
Thirty years old
Never danced a step

[Chorus 1]
She would have left these red hills
Far behind if not for her condition
Would have left these red hills
Long ago if not for my condition

[Verse 2]
Pitiful joy
She looked away
To a hollow sky
Came face to face

[Chorus 2]
With her own innocence surrounding her
Until it never was a question
Innocence so suffocating
Now she cannot move, no question

[Verse 3]
No hope for Joy
No hope or faith
She wanted to go blind
Wanted her to stay
[Outro]
I've been believing in nothing since I was born
It never was a question
No!
