Closest to me she must be a good child? Don't ignore the signs, that's right You be her teacher, taking Shivering, she awakes in the cold sweat Terrified so she speaks under her breathe Makes a fake cry for help, she's a real mess That's the sign of the stress, ma, listen to her Heartbeats working overtime in her chest Scared stiff from approaching footsteps Ignoring the stains on her torn dress Come now ma, listen to her How could you put your own child in danger? And turn around and take the words of a stranger You didn't wanna face the facts so you blamed her Too late ma, you should have listened to her Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace With the angels Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace With the angels She's fading like a delicate flower Try to wash away the shame in the shower Defending him left her feeling overpowered You were wrong ma, you didn't listen to her It was there in the words of the letter Had you read it maybe things would be better You let her down and I won't let you forget her Save ya tears ma, you should have listened to her How could you put your own child in danger? And turn around and take the words of a stranger You didn't wanna face the facts so you blamed her Save ya tears ma, you didn't listen to her Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace With the angels Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace With the angels Why day, why day Why day, why day Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace With the angels Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace With the angels Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace With the angels Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace With the angels Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace With the angels Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace With the angels Gone, she's asleep, finally, she's at peace With the angels Gone, out of reach, finally, souls in peace With the angels
