Like a lamb to the slaughter She drags along her daughter Unaware of the blood behind her Her chest scraping the gravel ground She pleads out to her mother Let me walk let me free Looking straight ahead The mother says Don't you dare bother me

Child Beggar
Like a lamb to the slaughter She drags along her daughter Unaware of the blood behind her Her chest scraping the gravel ground She pleads out to her mother Let me walk let me free Looking straight ahead The mother says Don't you dare bother me
