The memories of missing years
Has squinting eyes flooding with tears
A teardropp falls
The start of it all

The sound of one single long lasting breath
Breathing life into a soul waking from death
A teardropp falls
Hearing life call

The unfair memories she has of being a little girl
The violence she saw destroyed her innocent world
A teardropp falls
For the child who never crawled

So she mourns for the child we’ve all got inside
The little girl who never was, inside her heart she hides
A teardropp falls
She fooled us all

You think she’s ok and you know that she’s fine
But for all this time she’s been giving you lines
A teardropp falls
For a life that stalled

A crying shudder for the body, knees up to her face
As the raw fact hits her, those years won’t take place
A teardropp falls
A woman sobs and bawls
