I got this from http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=2715 hope it helps: "This is about the actual kidnapping of a 14 year old girl named Polly. In 1987, Polly was returning from a concert in Tacoma, Washington when she was abducted by a man named Gerald Friend. He took her back to his mobile home and raped her. Polly was tortured with a whip, a razor, and a blowtorch. She managed to escape when Friend took her for a ride and stopped for gas. He was arrested and sent to jail.
