I prayed to the lord
how could this have been...

The gavel falls and so do i
another year without you by my side...

Mommy don't knock at the door
or you'll find me on the floor...

Hold me down
but you cant break me...

Forever until death
i do open my eyes...

She brushes her hair
as strands fall out...

So torn between confusion
a soul is tamed a stray...

Press the blade deep within
cut the hatred in the skin...

He lay there silent
screaming hate...

I dont like to cry
but this time i will...

I see you there
watching me...

So now I'm grown
thats what they say...
