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? 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 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 She'll be just fine 'Cause I know He hears her when she cries
