Prompt / Lyrics
(Guitar intro) Door cracked open a small way, Voices broken in strong waves of distaste, So much distance this family has embraced. A hope of a better life, Lost in ignorance and strife. She sits by the door, Protecting herself by harming herself more. The pain that is the cause, Pointing out each of her flaws. Leave or stay, Will they be safe either way? Who is the liar? Are they trapped inside this raging fire? Will anyone keep her safe? Is there anyone they won’t betray? Is this little girl worth fighting through the pain? Teach her how to be brave! She needs the courage to stay. Her fathers leaving, Taking all the money with him. Her mother grieving, using her to try and win, Everything. But to her father that’s a sin. Because who is she, if not a mirror of her mother? Who is she, if not the devil undercover. She tries to keep herself quiet, But she’s just far too tired. Leave or stay, Will they be safe either way? Who is the liar? Are they trapped inside this raging fire? Will anyone keep her safe? Is there anyone they won’t betray? Is this little girl even worth fighting through the pain? Will anyone teach her how to be brave! Please give her the courage to stay! Please! Please! Help her now! Stop looking through her dead eyes expressions, And see her for more than everything they’ve done, To make her this way, To keep her from running away. Please just give her a way! Help her to escape! Leave or stay, She won’t be safe either way. Who is the liar? Why did they leave her trapped inside that fire!? Will anyone keep her safe? Is there anyone that won’t betray her? Is she worth fighting through the pain, Please teach her to be brave! And give her the courage to stay. Stay. Stay. Give her the courage to stay.
