When She Cries

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

Every day's the same

She fights to find her way

She hurts she breaks

She hides and tries to pray

She wonders why

Does anyone ever hear her when she cries

Today she's turning sixteen

Everyone singing

But she can't seem to smile

They never get past arms length

How could they act like everything is alright

She's 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"

Every day's the same

She fights to find her way

She hurts she breaks

She hides and tries to pray

She wonders why

Does anyone ever hear her when she cries

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

And every day's the same

She fights to find her way

She hurts she breaks

She hides and tries to pray

She'll be just fine

'Cause I know He hears her when she cries

Every days the same

She fights to find her way

She hurts she breaks

She hides and tries to pray

She'll be just fine

'Cause I know He hears her when she cries

She'll be just fine

'Cause I know He hears her when she cries
