Once upon a time there was a girl
In her early years she had to learn
How to grow up living in a war that she called home
Hearing all the yelling I would cry up in my room
Hoping it would be over soon
the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
I often wonder why I carry all this guilt
When it's you that helped me put up all these walls I've built
Shadows stir at night through a crack in the door
Daddy, don't you understand the damage you have done
To you it's just a memory, but for me it still lives on
When I was thrown against cold stairs
And every day I'm afraid to come home.
but not any longer. I'm happy now.
Every morning that I wake I look back
I'm Ok.
