You can se e it on her face
Her red ey es say she's not safe
How should she kno w what it means
She is o nly just a teen
Under her du vet's where she hides
To block the scre aming late at night
She can't reme mber life before
Mama and Da ddy went to war
A ll little girls are full of confusion
C ry all you want cause you're only human
Wa s all the love just an illusion?
Da ddy's not coming home
Ma ma's asleep and she smells of whiskey
Pro mise that won't be you when you're 50
Cry before the guilty clap your w ings
Cause all your he roes
Are skin and bo nes
Packed the small ba g of things she loves
Deep insi de she blames herself
She has no where else to go
But that sounds be tter than what she knows
And as she ste ps into the dark
Dirty ha ir and heavy heart
Cold cold a ir inside her lungs
Catch a sno wflake on her tongue
A ll little girls are full of confusion
C ry all you want cause you're only human
Wa s all the love just an illusion?
Da ddy's not coming home
Ma ma's asleep and she smells of whiskey
Pro mise that won't be you when you're 50
Cry before the guilty clap your wi ngs
Cause all your he roes
Are skin and bo nes
And a s I heard you shut the door
Went thro ugh the window and I saw
The fo otsteps of my big sister in the sn ow
Since the n not a single day has passed
Where I don't say your name and ask
Whe re where did you g o?
A ll little girls are full of confusion
C ry all you want cause you're only human
Wa s all the love just an illusion?
Da ddy's not coming home
Ma ma's asleep and she smells of whiskey
Pro mise that won't be you when you're 50
Cry before the guilty clap your wi ngs
Cause all your he roes
Are skin and bo nes
