The screams in the night
A child?s fearful cries
There is no on to help
No room for calm

Long, lonely nights
Huddled in the corner
No one knows of the real fear
Felt deep within

Of those nights spent crying
And days of acting
Covering up so well
The hurt and confusion

Deep inside her heart
She trusts but no one
And loves but one
But never has she been loved
By anyone that matters

The doors slam
The furniture flies
There is no one to hear
Her anguished cries

Never will she love
If this I how it is
Every night the same
Screaming and fighting

There is nothing she can do
But sit back and listen
And as one cry ends
Another begins

Why does it have to be like this?
Why cant it just end?
