She sits in the room, boxes surrounding her
She`s been told to be strong, grown up in 2 weeks
Her mother working a lot, father in denial

But who is there when she cries tonight
Who will hug her when she gets in another fight
When her heart throbs, who will help the pain
When she`s broken, who will take her out of the rain

She was taught to be on her own
She was taught to be independent
But she needs to be shown
She needs to know how to live
She needs to be able to be free
She needs to be a kid

Oh daddy left this morning
Mamma doesnt care
Friends are confsed
Teachers no help
