Verse 1: Children raised in Hell, since their birth. Neglected, no escape. Prisoners of Earth. Pre: They protect themselves with flames. & push their hands into the water. Putting up with all the pain. Where has the sun gone? Chorus: Can you stop what your stepparents have done? They think abusive lives are all in fun. Can you take this nightmare & throw it away? Can you runaway & save yourself today? Children treated like a handful of dirt. Nurtures the ground, but poisons the earth. Just when it all seems quiet & all pain free. It's when they put a child, another child to sleep. Verse 2: Listen kiddo, Can you see the light? These tears injected, Make 'em lose the fight. Pre: So you set the fire high. You listen to 'em screaming. You burn yourself alive. Freedom's as close as dreaming. Chorus Verse 3: Blood & pain. Tears & hurt. Lying on top of chrome. Sleet or rain. Mud or dirt. Left without a home. Left here all alone. Pre: So they think we're all just liars. Makin' stories just to tell. But the cuts & broken bones. It is proof we live in Hell Chorus: Can you stop what your stepparents have done? They think abusive lives are all in fun. Can you take this nightmare & throw it away? Can you runaway & save yourself today? Can you prove that we're tortured souls? In balls & chains, trapped inside a hole. Just when it all seems quiet & all pain free. It's when they put a child, another child to sleep.
