silent fury

ginny and molly were two sisters

born in a back country lane

they both are up poor

livin' on the wrong side of the tracks

to stay in that town was the downfall of both

ginny finally got away

molly got married and settled down with two kids in a shack

hard times came down on molly

when the old man went away

she tried to work and raise her kids at the same time

ginny came back and tried to help her

but molly refused out of spite

a fight began between them

and molly stabbed ginny with a knife

silent fury

molly's feelin' burned

just like a well fire

silent fury

but ginny couldn't help save their lives

she's her own victim

yeah yeah

she's her own victim

yeah yeah yeah

trying to get away

from hard looks and people

trying to get away

she gave herself up cryin' no-no-no

nine years was molly's sentence

lucky it wasn't her life

but crimes of passion are so hard to justify

molly grew hard and bitter inside

both the kids had moved away

she had nothin' to hope for but her good luck and her better days

silent fury

molly's feelin' burned

just like a well fire

silent fury

but ginny couldn't help save their lives

she's her own victim

yeah yeah

she's her own victim

yeah yeah yeah

she's her own victim

yeah yeah

she's her own victim

yeah yeah
