She's just a child,
And yet She's felt it all,
She's been in places where regular people would cry and gnaw,
There teeth out of grief,
She's been in the cycle since she was really small,
She lays at night wakened by all the things she saw,
From the bad people who she feels are evil,
So she whimpers and crawls,
Underneath the sheets,
She's just a child,
And yet She's been thrown in the wild,
She's battered and bruised,
The wounds on her feet are covered by shoes,
Why because She's misused,
By who,
Don't act dumb,
Me and you,
Even though you can't accept really its true,
How do you expect her to be In her youth if she even makes it to her youth,
Yes that's plain truth,
Her life's held by a noose,
She's just a child,
She's been taken advantage of,
Tossed around in a sum of perverted talks,
On her doorstep it's only fear that knocks,
Inside her mind she'll retreat into a room that's locked,
From whom,
People She's scared of,
She's just a child,
And yet She's already been violated,
Do you think it's right to have her castrated,
Don't you feel that it makes her feel degraded,
She's just a child,
And she's never known home,
She's picked and tossed around like a stone,
Each shift making her feel she's all alone,
So she retreats into a shell that covers her as her dome.
She's been through it all,
And it's all she knows,
But did you ever realize that,
She's just a child.
