When She Cries
Little girl terrifiedShe'd leave her room if only bruises would healA home is no place to hideHer heart is breaking from the pain that she feels
[CHORUS]Every day's the sameShe fights to find her wayShe hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to prayShe wonders why, does anyone ever hear her when she cries
Today she's turning sixteenEveryone singing, but she can't seem to smileThey never get past arms lengthHow could they act like everything is alright?She's pulling down her long sleevesTo cover all the memories that scars leaveShe says, "maybe making me bleedwill be the answer that could wash the slate clean"
[CHORUS]
This is the dark before the dawnThe storm before the peaceDon't be afraid 'cause seasons change andGod is watching over youHe hears you
Every day's the sameShe fights to find her wayShe hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to prayShe'll be just fine, cause now he hears her when she cries
Every day's the sameShe fights to find her wayShe hurts, she breaks, she hides, and tries to prayShe'll be just fine, cause now he hears her when she criesShe'll be just fine, cause now he hears her when she cries
