How Does She Live With Herself

Look at him, hes perfect, so small and innocent
Never will they let anyone harm him
Always they will protect him and love him

Time passes, his daddy dies
He grows up too fast
He's in trouble with himself
He's in trouble with her 
He's in trouble with the law

More time passes and they start new
She falls for a man, a good man ?
What about him, what happened ?
She said she would love him!
Never let anyone harm him!
Forever protect him!
Forever love him!

He is not an adult!
He needs her!
He is harmed!
He is not protected!
He needs love!

How does she live with herself
