about a little girls night mares as her own father and grandfather hurt her
She has a lot of pain,
She keeps it bottled up inside-
She wants no one to know,
How her daddy makes her cry.

She dreads when school gets out,
And it's time to go back home-
She knows that once he gets off work,
He'll try to be alone.

She wishes it would stop,
That he would leave her be-
The tears stream down her face,
When he gets between her knees.

And when her daddy's done,
She knows that they're not through-
It's then her grandad's turn,
She hates what he makes her do.

When the hurting's over,
When they're finished for the night-
She sobbingly climbs between her sheets,
And wishes things were right.

She needs someone to lean on,
Someone to help her win-
A friend to mend her broken wings,
And help her fly again.

She wishes she could tell someone,
Who'll listen and wipe her tears-
Who'll help her ger through life,
Who'll understand her fears.

She thinks it's all a nightmare,
Each morning she awakes-
For her daddy treats her right,
Breakfast for her he makes.

But then night comes again,
And all her nightmares soon are true-
They say, "Don't worry honey,
This is good for you."

She cries and cries and cries,
But she knows that they don't care-
They are filling all their needs,
Attacking her like hungry bears.

She's called the cops just once or twice,
They've gone up to her home-
But she cried and she denied it,
She feels she's on her own.

She promises herself,
The next time that they come-
She's going to figure out a way,
To stop it from being done.

The next night he quietly enters,
Locking the door behind him-
And this time something's different,
Her grandfather's not with him.

Her daddy whispers in her ear,
As he orders her to stand-
She tries so hard not to cry,
As he hits her with his hand.

But she can't hide the tears for long,
She finally breaks down and cries-
She can't wait until it's over,
When she proves they weren't all lies.

Until then she lives the secret,
Fearing for each night-
For at this point in her life,
She's just not strong enough to fight.
