Simon & Garfunkel's "The Boxer"
is now "St. Scully"

She's a topnotch agent
And her story should be told
She is working towards resistance
of a Syndicate that helps the colonizers
Truths between lies
Makes the truth hard to discover
But still St. Scully tries.

When she left med school for the FBI
she thought she could do some good
In the company of Mulder
In the darkness of a basement office with no desk
Armed with faith, seeking out the deeper answers
Since the truth can set her free
Looking for the clues that only she can see.

Full of healthy skepticism
She goes out to solve a case
but she finds confusion
In each X-file things defy clear explanation
And she declares, there must be answers within science
The truth can be found there.

Then she's lying to her superiors
In a battle for her life
Life has changed
From the days when trusting others came so easily,
Easily, life has changed.

In the center stands St. Scully
She's a fighter come what may
And she carries the reminders
Of everyone who died for her
Or hurt her til she cried out
In her anger and her pain
"There's no justice, there's no justice"
But the fighter still remains...
