Breathe in and out until the burning subsides.
The pain is so bad all I can do is help muffle your cries.
I don't know who did this to you or their reasons why,
But you know I'll find him and show him hell before he dies.

Night after night and I can't stop the endless tears coming like a flood.
Even though I found the man and came home bathed in his blood.
Nothing will take you from me again and of that I'm sure,
The memories will fade in time and soon I'll find you a cure.

But it's always the innocent who get ripped apart and mistreated.
The strong have little to lose & violence to them is happily greeted.
There has to be a way for me to keep this one safe from harms way.
I don't know how but I'll keep her in my arms until that very day.
