OMG. She was so very beautiful and talented and…..tortured.

Dolores O’Riordan was sexually abused from a very young age, for many years, by an older man. She never said who.

Her mother, a deeply indoctrinated Catholic, never believed her daughter. The memories of this abuse haunted Dolores her entire life.

She ended up drunk and dead in a bath.

The man who abused her is probably still alive and average and obedient and boring and IN DENIAL.

I Can and WILL connect everything to EVERY-effing-THING.

BAD WOLVES & ZOMBIES. ALL OF THEM HUMAN BEINGS

This song is a truly fitting memorial to a beautiful girl who lost the fight. What was she telling us when she wrote these word? ? ?

Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken?
