Album: Transition
Take her youth, it's only the beginning
All her life, all she's known are endings
Stolen peace - changed for all time
Forever altered, broken child
I cannot cry, your ocean of tears for you
Take my hand, you know that I love you
You were a child, he ripped from you your innocence
Shame written in blood, written by his ignorance
Your inheritance, a river sixteen years deep
You saved my life, you kept me safe from him
Time to grieve, you never had the chance to
Time to mourn - for what he took from you
How can she sleep with burning in her mind?
She can no longer see to write, the page obscured by pain
In her mind she recreates the scenes of tears
Cast in fire, wasted bitter years
