Dedicated to her father who fell 30 feet and became “paralyzed from the waist down,” Scott reflects. Her feelings about the tragedy, even now, are best summed up with this line: It’ll haunt me forever.

I was on my way to see a seer on 14th
The morning you fell thirty feet
Your body broken on concrete
Across the country in the Georgia heat

I hounded you to stay on the ground
It'll haunt me forever the way you came down

And I live beyond illusion
My view of the hour from up there in my tower
Or down here prostrate to a psychic

I have never known peace
Now all I can do is cry and worry
I hounded you to stay on the ground
It'll haunt me forever the way you came down
You never listen to me
You took such a big leap
