She grew up without very much
She didn't know who her father was
She met a boy and her heart he stole
So she gave him all her body and soul

She's not ready to face
The outcome of their mistake
It's brought her nothing but pain
And she's too young for this fate


SHE'S ALONE
CAUGHT UP IN THE UNDERTOW
WHERE IT TAKES HER NO ONE KNOWS
THAT'S HOW IT GOES, THAT'S HOW IT GOES
WHEN WE THROW STONES


People denied and criticized
They sent her away isolated
Caught in a bad dream, her plea rejected
They left her alone and neglected

They put her out on display
Showcasing all her mistakes
She's worn out and she's afraid
Why does it always happen this way?

[refrain]

She went to them for help
But blindly they cast the first stone
They could have taken her in
Instead they left her on her own
All alone

[refrain]

When we throw stones at the wounded
We throw stones at the brokenhearted
That's how it goes when we throw stones
