love shouldn't hurt
born in pure innocence born without the fear she says "mommy what did i do wrong to make you cry your angry tears?" feeling dirty and ashamed keeps making up excuses she's learned how to hide the pain but she can't hide the bruises anymore there's no light behind her eyes she's tryin to find love in a stranger's touch 14 years old and so alone desperate for what she needs so much she cries herself to sleep at night and prays she won't wake up. love shouldn't hurt love shouldn't scar but sometimes we can be so blind to the way things really are love can be so unkind truth is that hearts get broken everyday but love should never ever hurt this way. children having children and growing up too fast if you've never been shown lvoe how can you give love back? her newborn baby's cryin' it's more than she can stand she doesn't see the tragedy when she raises her own hand there's no light behind her eyes she doesn't realize what she has done didn't think she was being so rough little one won't you please wake up?. but love should never ever hurt this way
