The Child That Is Me

There once was child who as sad as sad can be The child cried many a tear It cried where no else would see The child cried alone for many a year People did laugh at the child who cowered in fear They would poke and taunt While the child cried many a tear The people the child did daunt This child did stay as sad as sad can be This child was chained The child could never be free I know because this child is me The child is me I have cried many a tear I have cried alone for oh so many a year I am as sad as sad can be The scars in my wrist Are records of the taunting If I were gone I wouldn't be missed For the people are daunting And here I will remaining crying my tears The child that is me For many years I will remain as sad as sad can be
