You grew up in a patch, Some say that it was cursed. You spent your whole life Trying to wash away the dirt.
They said that you were nothing, With their hands under your skirt; So you tied yourself away, With a rag under your shirt.
Oh, Larraine
Your daddy loved you wrong, While he pointed his gun; Your mother turned her face, Being Princess of Grace.
They left you in the woods, To find your way back, like a dog; You cried in the dark, While they drank beers on the lawn.
Oh, Larraine Oh, Larraine
The nightmares wouldn't stop, So you drink them to a haze; But when you cut the lines, They put you away.
You had a little girl, Who writes songs about your pain; An episode of Grace, Now she's living in L.A.
Most of them I never knew, But that is just as well; Even as I cry for you, I know they're all in hell.
Don't you know it was all for you, Larraine? Everything I did was for you, Larraine. 'Cause what they did to you, they did to me...

As for the song's meaning... I think it is pretty self explanatory.
