They found her body out beyond the pines
Near a cyclone fence under some power lines
Her mother hadn't heard from her in weeks
She'd been meeting up with friends near Moonlight Creek
She was stripped of all her grace
From her feet up to her face
The sun it turns to red as it starts to settle down
On the remnants of a broken southern town
They picked her boyfriend up outside his house
They questioned him for almost fourteen hours
He offered up a solid alibi
Well he was interstate the night they said she died
They brought in more suspects they could not hold
It turned into a case no one could solve
The rumours were the killer passed on through
And wasn't someone that she even knew
She was stripped of all her grace
From her feet up to her face
And the sun it turns to red as it starts to settle down
On the remnants of a broken southern town
And the sun it turns to red as it finally settles down
On the remnants of a broken southern town
