I got my head phones in my ears
trying so hard to block out their voices
but the music is never loud enough
do they not see what they are doing to their little girl


I hide behind the couch
trying hard not to be foud
but were ever i go i am found
do they not see what they are doing to this family

I hold back the tears
but they come on anyway
crying into the dark for helpp and for peace
do they not see what they are doing

Soon it ends with one blow
with one word they are gone
do they not see what they did
this is were it lead
