Baby, baby, sweet little girl
You didn't ask to come into this world...

I've been through the bad lands
I'm now afraid of man's hands...

When you look at me but you're seeing her
...please walk away...

But if your book really speaks the truth
I may just be farther from Heaven than you...

When nothingness becomes solid.
When emotions have taste...

Not that I've ever told you but
* I've been slowly falling apart over the years...

So here's a story I've kept to myself
Of a girl who had to be her own help...

It's like this...they tell you you can't be fixed...
The one who broke you; that you have to fix...

There's something in my chest squeezing tight
my eyes are irritated and red from tryin' not to...

Why am I so emotional?
The storm's rolled in and I find...

And you were so much sunshine
And she was a dying wilted flower...

Dear girl... Darlin...look down
Examine your pale little arms...
