Nobody Knew

Nobody knows the pain she hides, No one cares to look inside. This little girl that’s only nine, Has to fight to stay alive. Her mom’s an alcoholic, And her daddy does drugs. She gets beaten and bruised, Instead of kisses and hugs. Nobody hears the little girl’s cries, Nobody notices her wet swelled eyes. When her mommy is drunk and her daddy is high, So she doesn’t get beaten, she has to hide. She’s sick of the pain, That she suffers from every night. She’s sick of getting punished, For her mom and dad’s fights. So, she went downstairs and grabbed a rope, And hung it way up high. She stood on a chair and put her head through the noose, And jumped and hung there to die. Her mom came home drunk that night, Her daddy came home high. To find her hanging by the rope, To find out she had committed suicide. Nobody knew the pain she hid, Nobody cared to look inside. The little girl that had wet swelled eyes, Committed suicide and no longer has to fight to stay alive.
