Lyrics
Daddy hit Momma with a brick in a towel.
And Momma hits sister, sister cries foul.
Big brother and sister, they're drunk all the time.
And the youngest is silent, that's a very bad sign.
The youngest child watches and takes it all in. It's easy to see where this circle will end.
Chorus:
Lives of sorrow, lives of despair
are down for the count and gasping for air.
Let in the light and look past today
the solutions are yours
if you see it that way.
The silence is chilling.
Frustration intense.
Down another city street you've got another steel fence.
A sixteen year old feels pressure from above.
Thinks he has to be perfect if he wants his parent's love.
Down the street lives a lonely girl,
thinks her heart needs a boy to experience the world.
Repeat chorus
Anger is building in so many teenage hearts,
it turns inward where suicide starts.
Self-destruction tick, tick, ticking until it blows apart,
the potential love once alive in their hearts.
