|
In a forgotten place a child's face |
|
Old beyond her years |
|
Her body caged my soul enraged |
|
She's drowning in her tears |
|
Though they may deny you |
|
(and i know they'll try to) |
|
I cannot help but wonder |
|
Will no one help her? |
|
A china doll but less alive |
|
Her time in this world |
|
Her only crime the same as mine |
|
To have been born a girl |
|
Better i should suffer |
|
Than to watch another |
|
One so small can do no wrong |
|
Child - where's your mother? |
|
Oh, mother |
|
Can no one tell me how a mother |
|
Can give away her own? |
|
Cast aside left to die |
|
All alone |
|
Can no one tell me how a person |
|
Can say that this is right? |
|
All the guilt shame blame |
|
Do you sleep at night? |
|
Can no one tell me the purpose |
|
Of being born only to die? |
|
Little children, angels |
|
Hear them cry |
|
In a forgotten place a child's face |
|
Old beyond her years |
|
Her body caged my soul enraged |
|
I'm drowning in her tears |
|
They say the blame is thought to be |
|
A one-child policy |
|
But you were sent to |
|
The dying room |
|
Mei-Ming, i'm so sorry |
|
I'm sorry... |
