a child afraid , alone , heart like stone
i used to hide behind the door , i wished i was invisible
hit me with a belt,punch me, slap me in my face , leave me crying in disgrace
tear away my walls as i cling to myself , tear me apart
i couldn't hold onto anything , i couldn't hold onto me
i promised god every nite that i'd be a good girl if he would set me free
i wrote happy stories and drew pictures of horses to make me feel safe
put my head in a pillow so i don't hear the death of my mother
i don't want to hear her dying inside, crying , hurting , jagged
i see the fear in the eyes of my brothers my sisters , love
i hold them , i am little but i wish myself big for them
nobody knows how we hurt , i ache when i remember when,
he touches me , slowly girl dying , i hate him, i want to kill him
he hurts me , but i can't cry, i don't feel anything , i am nothing
