One More

On the outside she looks so peaceful. With her eyes shut tight against all evil, And her shoulders drop like a failed Messiah, And all her fears rejoice inside her. So she rolls out into the sunlight, And her Daddy tells her she'll be alright. But he don't look at her and he don't smile, He whispers a prayer to ease his mind. When she gets home no one says a word. Her Momma's crying, doesn't notice her. She turns the lock on her bedroom door. She finds the answers, She takes one more and one more... One more, one more, one more... One more.
