userI could swear this song was from 93' or 94'. The title says it is from 99'. IS this a different version??
user
It is from 93'.

I came from a pretty dysfunctional family, but you also have to remember that you have a choice. That's what all the literature teaches, right? Its a choice to continue being dysfunctional. Intimate relationships are like anything else. Some people are good at them...some people are great at them. The rest of us have to work. I love this song. It reminds me of a really long talk I had with my Daddy when I was having chemical issues of the thc persuasion.

hi im dave adult child of the ultimate dysfunctional family

I only like one song of hers so far. It's called "Fallen" Does anyone know of any other songs she made like that one?
user
Most of her songs are quite similar in tone and subject. Can you be more specific about why you like that one and not others? Her voice can be quite haunting and beautiful. Have you tried listening to whole albums?
user
It is very similar. I think of it like a play.....the whole album ties in to her life at the time. Her albums can be played to create a mood when you listen to it as a whole.

Lyrics:
Hey your glass is empty
it's a hell of a long way home
why don't you let me take you
it's no good to go alone
I never would have opened up
but you seemed so real to me
after all the bullshit I've heard
it's refreshing not to see
I don't have to pretend
she doesn't expect it from me
Don't tell me I haven't been good to you
don't tell me I have never been there for you
don't tell me why
nothing is good enough
Hey little girl would you like some candy
your momma said that it's OK
The door is open come on outside
no I can't come out today
it's not the wind that cracked your shoulder
and threw you to the ground
who's there that makes you so afraid
you're shaken to the bone
and I don't understand
you deserve so much more than this
So don't tell me why
he's never been good to you
don't tell me why
he's never been there for you
don't you know that why
is simply not good enough
so just let me try
and I will be good to you
just let me try
and I will be there for you
I'll show you why
you're so much more than good enough...
Hey your glass is empty
it's a hell of a long way home
why don't you let me take you
it's no good to go alone
I never would have opened up
but you seemed so real to me
after all the bullshit I've heard
it's refreshing not to see
I don't have to pretend
she doesn't expect it from me
Don't tell me I haven't been good to you
don't tell me I have never been there for you
don't tell me why
nothing is good enough
Hey little girl would you like some candy
your momma said that it's OK
The door is open come on outside
no I can't come out today
it's not the wind that cracked your shoulder
and threw you to the ground
who's there that makes you so afraid
you're shaken to the bone
and I don't understand
you deserve so much more than this
So don't tell me why
he's never been good to you
don't tell me why
he's never been there for you
don't you know that why
is simply not good enough
so just let me try
and I will be good to you
just let me try
and I will be there for you
I'll show you why
you're so much more than good enough...
