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.

Listen

Listen to the whispers,
Listen to the lies.
All about this little girl,
That always has tears in her eyes.

Listen to the giggles,
As the girl suddenly falls.
Listen to the things people say about her,
As she walks down the halls.

She has no friends,
No one to call.
No one to talk to,
No one at all.

When she gets home,
from school everyday.
She grabs a knife,
And cuts away.

She cuts her wrists,
Never too deep.
But just enough,
To make her weep and bleed.

But now she’s getting sick of it,
Sick of all her pain.
So she grabs out the knife and finally decides,
She’s going to end her life today.

So she finally goes for the final slit,
And then she says “this is it”.
She puts it on her wrist and pushes down,
And in an instant she falls to the ground.

So, now listen to the whispers,
Now listen to the lies.
About the little girl,
That because of them ened her own life.

Messed Up World

Living in a world,
full of hate.
A place that needs changed,
before it's too late.
People killing,
people lying.
Because of it,
innocent people are dying.
Homeless people,
living on sides of streets.
That can't even afford,
shoes to wear on their feet.
Abused children,
getting treated in horrible ways.
Somebody better stop this soon,
because they might not have another day.
Rapists stealing peoples innocence away,
and thinking that it's okay.
They beat the people until they're on the ground,
Then they allow themselves to have their own way.
Drug-dealers selling drugs,
so they can get by.
But all they're really doing,
is ruining other peoples lives.
So we're living in a world,
full of hate.
A place that needs changed,
before it's too late.

The Little Girl

Today I passed this little girl,
And I could tell she was sad and confused.
Here shirt was torn as well as her jeans,
And she was wearing old, spoiled shoes.

I could tell something was wrong,
When I looked into her eyes.
But I assumed if I asked her,
She would’ve cried and told me lies.

By the looks of her I could tell,
That she was badly abused.
When I got home I wished I would’ve helped her,
Before I seen her on the news.

The little girl went home that night,
And grabbed her daddy’s gun.
She put it to her head and pulled the trigger,
And just like that, her life was done.

Now she’s in a safe place,
She’s in heaven up above.
Now she’s in a place,
Where she is happy and will always be loved.

Last Things She Said

Sleeping soundly,
In her bed.
Thinking about,
The last things she said.

She said she hated him,
She said she didn’t care.
She said when she was with him,
Life just wasn’t fair.

She said he had hit her,
And he had put her through hell.
She said that he had made her feel like,
She had completely failed.

She said she’s glad it’s over,
And she’s happy they are through.
But now she is out looking,
For someone new.

Someone that will love her,
Someone that will care.
Someone that with whom life’s fair,
And someone who will always be there.

Sleeping soundly,
In her bed.
Thinking about,
The last things she said…

Daddy, I Miss You

Daddy, I miss you,
Where did you go?
I have some questions to ask you,
But I guess I'll never know.

I won't ask mommy,
because speaking of you brings her tears.
Even though you've been gone,
for almost thirteen years.

I wondered why you hung yourself,
Why did you let go?
But because you're so far away,
those answers I'll never know.

I wish that I could bring you back,
and be with you once more.
I would love you more than anyone else,
Of that, I am sure.

Daddy, I hope you're listening,
as I am talking to you today.
Just remember I'll always miss you,
and wish you wouldn't have went away.

Pain Inside

She thought she loved him,
Until he broke her heart.
She should’ve known this was going to happen,
Right from the very start.

She thought they were the perfect couple,
Because they were together for so long.
But when he told her he couldn’t do it anymore,
She realized she was wrong.

After he broke her heart,
Inside she wanted to cry and die.
But she didn’t let those feelings show,
At all on the outside.

She wanted all the pain bottled up inside her,
To just go away.
If it didn’t 
She would have to find a way.

She noticed the pain,
Wasn’t going to go away.
And with all this pain in this world,
She just could not stay.

So, she went home,
And found a rope.
She finally realized,
That this was her only way to cope.

So she hung the rope,
Way up high.
And jumped off a chair,
And hung there to die.

She thought she loved him,
Until he broke her heart.
She should’ve known this was going to happen,
Right from the very start.

You

Love songs start playing,
As I’m thinking of you.
I’m thinking about how,
You broke my heart in two.

First, you told me I was beautiful,
Then you told me you would never bring me pain.
All those lies you told me,
Are making me insane.

You were all over me,
Kissing my body and having your way.
I never should’ve been stupid enough,
To listen to what you had to say.

You are just a player,
Don’t even try to deny it.
All I will tell you,
Is that I don't wanna hear it.

My Shining Star

You went away,
Way too far.
But you will always be,
My shining star.
My star that shines in the sky,
To tell me you’re still there.
You’re my star that always shines,
To tell me you still care.
My star that is always there,
That never loses its shine.
The only one in the sky,
That I always seem to find.
The one that never,
Ever goes away.
Always there,
Where it wills always stay.
It will be there shining down on me,
Whenever I need it.
And also when,
I feel like I need to quit.
And it will be there,
When everything’s not okay.
Because you’re my shining star,
That’s never going away.

How I Feel

All I want to do right now is cry,
But I try and hold it all inside.
And all I want to do with my emotions,
Is curl up in a corner and die.

My life is so hard right now,
People just don’t understand.
I just wish I could go,
Off and hide in a deserted land.

I don’t want my feelings to show,
Because I don’t know what people would say.
When people try to get me to open up to them,
I simply just push them away.

I wish that I could tell someone exactly how I feel,
But all talking about my emotions does is bring me to tears.
Telling someone about my life,
Is one of my biggest fears.

It feels as if nobody loves me,
And as if nobody cares.
And having these thoughts in my mind,
Makes my heart tear.

But hopefully,
That’s not at all real.
But for right now,
That’s exactly how I feel.
