She's Only a Little Girl

She’s only a little girl who hides in her closet at night.
He’s a grown man to big for her to fight.
She’s a toy daddy can play
Just as long as he has his way.
She’s filled with shame and pain.
She will never be the same.

These are the Angels that fell
That have a story to tell
They have come to live in hell.
God’s heart dies
As he hears their cries.
He watched his children’s innocence
Be ripped from their grasps
With a promise that his love is always going to last.

Where did god go in the middle of her pain?
Believe it or not
He’s holding her hand as he’s taking names
