Little girl terrified
She'd leave her room if only bruises would heal
A home is no place to hide
Her heart is breaking from the pain that she feels
Yolei looked at the bruises she had created on her thighs. Disgusting. She was hiding in her own home.
Every day's the same
She fights to find her wayShe hurts, she breaks, she hidesAnd tries to pray
She sighed. Every day was the fucking same. she was tired of fighting.
She wonders why
Does anyone ever hear her when she cries
Tears fell from her eyes as she hid her face in her pillow.
Today she's turning sixteen
Everyone singing, but she can't seem to smileThey never get past arms lengthHow could they act like everything is alright?
Everyone was so happy. Ken was good. Danger was less. everyone was laughing, dancing, singing. Cuts littered her arms. How could everyone be so happy?
Pulling down her long sleeves
To cover all the memories that scars leave
She says, "maybe making me bleed
Will be the answer that could wash the slate clean"
She pulled down her long sleeves as she fought back tears. Maybe these scars would be the thing that could make her better?
Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides
And tries to pray
Every day was the fucking same... She was hiding from her own friends. her own family. Not like they cared.
She wonders why
Does anyone ever hear her when she cries
no one ever fucking heard her.
This is the dark before the dawn
The storm before the peace
Don't be afraid 'cause seasons change
And God is watching over you
He hears you
She knew that there was a light coming. There just had to be.
Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides
And tries to pray
Every day was the FUCKING SAME!
She'll be just fine
'Cause now he hears her when she cries
Nothing fucking changed!
Every day's the same
She fights to find her way
She hurts, she breaks, she hides
And tries to pray
It was same old! Same old fucking thing! Cry, cut, cry, reply to a text, cry, bruise, go quiet when her family got home.
She'll be just fine
'Cause now I know he hears her when she cries
She'll be just fine
'Cause now I know he hears her when she cries
But somewhere it had to get better. would it?
