These nights, these days, this young girl's so afraid
|
Here in the moon's soft light she's praying
|
Cause she knows if he satys there'll be a price to pay
|
Her and his son's new life, he wants to go inside and she sees
|
|
That he can't control his disease
|
But he'd never hit her if she hadn't screamed
|
|
Looks like she's waiting for the shorter hand
|
But I wonder if she knows how slow it goes
|
She's got two evils and she can't decide
|
If she weighs her choices right, it tips one side
|
One new life, one bad guy
|
|
So young, so scared, a big world where no one cares
|
Oceans of faith recede to waste lands
|
It's too bad, it makes me so sad to see another have to grow up without a
|
dad
|
At least not one like he needs, a man who leads
|
He's got too much rage
|
|
Cause he's way too old for his age
|
And I doubt he'll ever grow to change his ways
|
|
Looks like she's waiting for the shorter hand
|
But I wonder if she knows how slow it goes
|
She's got two evils and she can't decide
|
If she weighs her choices right, it tips one side
|
One new life
|
|
God, give her courage now to decide
|
So hard to know what's wrong and right
|
She needs to know what's best for her son
|
Not this one, leave him here
|
|
Looks like she's waiting for the shorter hand
|
But I wonder if she knows how slow it goes
|
She's got two evils and she can't decide
|
If she weighs her choices right, it tips one side
|
One new life, one bad guy
|
