He touched her
And she chipped ever so gently
He hit her
Another chip falls
From that sweet shiny body of hersShe laughs
And finds joy in things like trees
They call her weak
When she's just sweetShe's made of porcelain
Fragile eyes made of glass
Perfectly made
Used and then passed
Bruised and abused
Handed down an object
A toy to play withPorcelain girl
Porcelain girl
What's wrong with youShe cries and she falls
Falling
Falling
Falling
Down till she hits the groundShe shatters
Revealing every scar
And broken part
That had been hidden for yearsNow everyone knew
But it was too late
This time she couldn't be saved.
