Shes upset
Bad day
Heads for the dresser drawer to
Drive her pain away
Nothing good can come of this.
She opens it theres nothing there
Its only left over tears
Mom and dad had no right she screams
The anger runs down both of her cheeks.

Then she closed her eyes
And found relief in a knife
The blood flows as she cries

All alone the way she feels
Left alone to deal with all the pain-drenched sorrow relief
Bite the lip just forget the bleeding

Then she closed her eyes
And found relief in a knife
The blood flows as she cries [x2]

Curled up shes on the floor
Relief left her she had hoped for something more
From it (hoped for something more)
From it
He leans down to comfort her
She is weeping and He
Wraps His arms around
And around and around and...
The deeper you cut
The deeper I hurt
The deeper you cut
It only gets worse [x2]
Gets worse.

Now shes slowly opening... [x2]
New eyes...

She opened her eyes
And found relief in His life
And put down her knives.

She opened her life
And found relief through His eyes
And put down
She put down..
Her Knife

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
