A little girl cried
Softly on her own
Where was her home
And the people to call her own

Mum held a vacant look in her eye
As she held her dad and cried
Her brother bled beside them
His brains on the floor

She didn't understand
Ever since that loud bang
Everything possible went wrong
Cameras in her face

And her life became an advert
Sad music in the background
And captions asking for
Just 3 pounds a month

Camp sites
And ***** cold water
She caught a disease
Which made her heave

She didn't grow up
Like she was supposed to
Instead her skin
Moulded to her ribcage

But someone from overseas
Sent some clothes
And one day she even ate
Got moved to a better camp site

Where all the kids went to school
Friendship
And crisis bound them together
Today they are here

Tomorrow they won't
