"Help" screams the little girl in her head
"My God," says the officer, who finds her dead
Crying is the mother who, the other day
Found out her daughter had run away
Gone is the father who beat his wife in front of her
Faded have the dreams of someone truly loving her
"No," says the mother who, losing breath
Feels she's the reason her daughter left
Away has the father gone
Can't face his shame
Crying is the mother
Thinks she's to blame
Holding the gun, her vision red
She'll soon join her daughter
A shot to the head.
