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 mama's cryin' doesn't notice her She turns the lock on the bedroom door She finds the answer and takes one more And one more and one more and one more
One more
