The Reason Why
Do you even know this girl?
Do you even want to try?
Well, let me tell you the reason why.
She's always so alone crying in her bed.
Always thinking this might be the end.
She has some secrets that no one knows,
And although she hasn't told a soul.
She made it her goal.
So, what is wrong with this girl, and why is it making your mind swirl?
This girl is in pain, and people think the world is what she'll gain.
She cries at night, and when her mom left she began to write.
She thought is was her passion, when no one believed in fashion.
Her mom left when she was only three.
The same day she fell and skinned her knee.
Her dad is a alcoholic, he hits her every night,
And touches her when he turns out the light.
This little girl cries wondering why
Her mom left without saying goodbye.
Are you scared for this girl?
Do you even want to try?
Here is more to the reason why.
She hides under her bed trying not to make a sound,
But when her father finds her;
He picks her up and throws her to the ground.
She always knows what's going to happen next,
So she closes her eyes and cries.
Her father touches her, and when she moves he beats her.
These are the things that always were to occur,
And no one said a word.
Are you starting to feel sorry for this girl?
Do you even want to try?
Here is more to her story and the reason why.
This little girl had enough of the sorrow and pain.
She took her life with one sharp knife
And she was gone that short bit, and her father had nothing to admit.
She was happy now and somehow she knew she would be safe.
Her father now stops drinking, and he's always thinking;
If it was his fault.
He isn't breaking into vaults;
He's wishing his little girl would come back from the dead,
To lay in her bed
But now he reads what she wrote in her note.
He never thought that her life was bad,
But he knew the reason why he was drinking and mad.
Her mom left him to raise her daughter by himself,
There was no one to help him.
Not even to teach her how to swim;
So that is why he was a drinker even though his excuse will never do
But that is her story and I thought I'd share it with you.
