I Sneak Away From My Past

I sneak away from the past looking through a mirrored glass What you see you can't believe that this life is of me. Raped an burned cut an sliced by daddy big ole knife. I sneak away from the past looking through a mirrored glass The things You made me do an the things you did to me would make you cry you see. A child so young an afraid black an blue maybe grey she never has anything to say. Broken bones every now an then as Mommy sets there an just grins. I sneak away from the past looking through a mirrored glass I pretend every things ok As daddy looks this way an tells me just what to say. I sneak away from the past while looking through that mirrored glass as my time here has almost past. I leave this world far behind as mommy an daddy's world will shine. Locked away for ever in a day This is where they'll always stay.
