Cat Power – Faces lyrics
His name was Perry.
He had a learning difficulty.
His father was a very mean man,
his father burned his skin.
His father sent him to his death.
He was 10 years old.
Her name was Naomi.
Beautiful round face, so ashamed.
Told me how to please a man
after school in the back of the bus.
She was doing it every day.
She was 11 years old.
Her name was Cheryl.
Black hair like electric space.
She would pretty paint my face.
She was a very good friend.
Her father would come to her in the night.
She was 12 years old.
His name was Donavin.
He was a very good friend.
The cards were stacked agaisnt him.
He was selling cocaine.
The last time i saw him
he was 13 years old.
His name was Charles.
He said he was in love with me.
We were both 14.
Then i had to move away.
Than he began to smoke crack.
Then he had to sell ass.
I dont know where he is.
I dont know where they are.
