Stabbing Westward - Sleep lyrics

rate me

She's been here so many times

Before she can't remember

When she last felt anything at all

But this fear and anger

She stares intently at the door,

Listens for his footsteps

She knows exactly what's in store

And the knowing makes it worse

When he calls her daddy's little girl,

She doesn't hear him

When he crushes her

She can't feel - her screams are silent

Hides in the corner of her mind

Where she plays contently

She leaves this nightmare far behind

She escapes inside her dreams

Floating high above her bed

Staring at her father's head

Wishing one of them were dead

So this hell could finally end
