Shh little me

please don't die

mommy's here

to sing you a lullaby


I can see your arms

blistered and broken

that's sad little me

mine are like that too


I know you scream

when Daddy's there

shh, little me

I know you tried


I can see the way

He's beating you

I'm sorry little me

He's done that to me too


I know that they see 

but they just ignore it

ignore what's going on in our home

that makes me furious little me

you shouldn't have to endure this


Dear little me

you want to know why your here?

It's a sad story, little me

But you should know


you see little me

one day your Daddy got high

You weren't in me yet

So you didn't hear me cry


He spat at me

And pushed me into the floor

while you weren't alive

I wish I did more


You know little me

I don't think that I would have had you

if someone had listened 

to my cries


But shh, little me

Daddy's coming home

Quick come to mommy's arms

You don't want him finding you alone


I'm sorry little me

He's in a bad mood

run while you can

or please hide in your room


Uh oh little me

Daddy's lifting his belt

scream while you can little me

call for help


Shh little me

you don't need to cry

no one can hurt you

your not gonna die.
