Add One to the Body Count

(This is another song I wrote. It's the first song we learned in my band Blatantly Obvious.)

Verse 1
Screaming silence into waking
Raindrops fall as hearts are breaking
Tears of sorrow, guilt and shame
Drip from the young girl's fragile frame
Too much pain thrust on her soul
Her future is just a large black hole
Nowhere to hide. Nowhere to run.

Chorus
Find me. Save me.
Someone come to my aide.
Heal me. Love me.
Don't let my life fade.

Verse 2
Broken hearts and shattered dreams
Nothing left in life it seems
He's giving up on everything
Because the world gave up on him
Lost all he's looked forward to
All he needs is someone like you.
Nowhere to hide. Nowhere to run.

(chorus)

Standing on the edge of night
I'm giving in to this big fight
Struggles in life overwhelm me
I need to break through; I must be free
I can't escape this cage of fear
I only wish that you were here.
Nowhere to hide. Nowhere to run.

(chorus)

Tag Ending
Nowhere to hide. Nowhere to run.
Nothing inside. My life is done.
