Taylor Momsen of The Pretty Reckless, one of Revolver Magazine’s Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock (See her on page 63), can be seen in a new spoken-word video, during which she reads a verse from her song “Under the Water.”
Although it’s hard to tell at first, Momsen, 19, appears completely naked in the video.
Here’s the verse she reads in the video, which was created as part of Amp Rock TV’s initiative, “The Words”:
“Lay my head under the water, lay my head under the sea. Excuse me sir am I your daughter? Won’t you take me back and see? It’s not a time for being younger and all my friends are enemies. And if I cried unto my mother, she wasn’t there for me. Broken lines across my mirror show my face all red and bruised. And though I screamed and I screamed no one came running, I wasn’t saved from you. Don’t let the water drag you down, don’t let me drown in the waves. I could be found, I could be one that was saved. Lay my head under the water. Alone I pray for calmer seas. And when I wake from this dream with chains all around me … I’ve never been free.”
