The memories of missing years br Has squinting eyes flooding with tears br A teardropp falls br The start of it all br br The sound of one single long lasting breath br Breathing life into a soul waking from death br A teardropp falls br Hearing life call br br The unfair memories she has of being a little girl br The violence she saw destroyed her innocent world br A teardropp falls br For the child who never crawled br br So she mourns for the child we’ve all got inside br The little girl who never was, inside her heart she hides br A teardropp falls br She fooled us all br br You think she’s ok and you know that she’s fine br But for all this time she’s been giving you lines br A teardropp falls br For a life that stalled br br A crying shudder for the body, knees up to her face br As the raw fact hits her, those years won’t take place br A teardropp falls br A woman sobs and bawls br br She’s had this pain alone for years, only she can tell, br Saying the same thing over and over, there’s no need for me to dwell br A teardropp falls br Creating salty pools br br Wiping her face with her hand tucked into her sleeve br Kneeling up off the floor with a graceful ease br A teardropp falls br From a woman who wont fall br br Two eyes to her future her heart for the child br The child none of us met because things where too wild br A teardropp falls br They where so cruel br br Now she knows she can survive with her inner child alive br Sad we won’t meet her but at least she knows she’s safe inside br A teardropp falls br May it be the last of them allbr br Kaspa Richardsbr br
