Lyric discussion by Benzodiazepine Dave 

the song is about a little known New Orleans prostitute named Rose (short for Rosalyn) who was reportedly into voodoo or the ocult; she disappeared and was found weeks later with her throat cut...animals had picked at her body...it was said her death was a payback from a curse she had placed on another... a friend of mine asked Tori at a meet and greet

I'm sure it's not completely about that. Did you read the quotes above? This obviously also has to do with Tori Amos's sadomasochism sexual urges, her rape, and the break up with Eric Rosse.
