Babygirl

There's big pieces of a life she can't remember

Her mind shuts down, it's trying to protect her

Might be for the best to forget but it seems like

They always reappear when she least expects

Late nights we lay awake, drowning in the lake for poors out of space???

Here's late but she's still not safe

Memories live out in the time,in the place

The way he smelled,the way he smiled

The evil she even recognized as a child

Hand on her throat,sting of a fist Instead of her first kiss she got this

Shameful feeling,painful secret

Lonely knowin that nobody would believe it

Heavy wound that escapes and the time kept on It hurts like the day it was born and it's brand new

I wasn't there babygirl but I'm here

I don't know what to say I just hear

If there's one wish I could make true

I would shoulder that pain and take it off you

Don't run babygirl, don't run

You gotta' face what you fighting, head on

Only one thing I could say in truth

You gotta' deal with the demons before they deal with you

How can she find peace in her mind when

Love means returning to the scene of a crime?

I can feel it inside we've reopened wounds everytime we intertwine

Such an evil design when you can't even enjoy the sweetness you find

Trying to see through the tears in your eyes and rebuild your (strime?) one piece at a time E and the K made it all fade away colors don't burn no more it's all gray

Cant find heaven from within that shell but it's enough of a blessin if just not seen hell Constant inner dialog says just end this rollercoast and ride along

Only one solution seems final: slide into a hole where your pain can't find you

I wasn't there babygirl but I'm here

I don't know what to say I just hear

If there's one wish I could make true

I would shoulder that pain and take it off you

Don't run babygirl, don't run

You gotta' face what you fighting, head on

Only one thing I could say in truth

You gotta' deal with the demons before they deal with you

She said if I was meant to die he would've killed me

There must be a reason that I still breathe

I don't have the tools to rebuild me

But I still believe that one day I could feel free

And my body can be mine again

My eyes can learn how to shine again

My inner child won't have to hide and then

When i'm strong then love could be invited in

Sweet God that's all I ask, of thee

I'm willing to give what you demand of me

I'm learning to embrace the reality

That life doesn't always turn out how it's planned to be

I didnt deserve what was handed me

Only one who can grant happiness is me

What it takes for her to face the day

I can only hope to be half that brave

I wasn't there babygirl but I'm here

I don't know what to say I just hear

If there's one wish I could make true

I would shoulder that pain and take it off you

Don't run babygirl, don't run

You gotta' face what you fighting, head on

Only one thing I could say in truth

You gotta' deal with the demons before they deal with you
