A little boy..
Beat for smashing windows
Just to hear the sound of breaking glass
A little girl...
Slapped for trying to whistle
Mama screams don't bother us like that
A teen-aged boy...
Crawling to his bedroom
To get away when Daddy's fists were done
A teen-aged girl...
Doesn't want a boyfriend
She'll fight to not be touched by anyone
~~~*Chorus*~~~
Tears of anger Tears of pain
Vows to never love again
Pillows wet from crying out to God
Where were you as I begged
Did you even heed my prayers
Don't you care...
God don't you care
~~*~~
A bright young man...
Creates stained glass windows
Mentors the troubled youth, to learn his trade
A young lady...
Mastered the piano
Free lessons to a different child each day
A true Father...
Takes his son, and his friends
Pays for their training class in self defense
A strong woman's...
A doctor and a guide
Counsels her patients on to live a life
~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
There was torture, there was shame
Private hell they overcame
Turned around and blessed us all
They reach out until they find
Sick of body, sick of mind
Tell you that it is God's call
~~*~~
~~~*Chorus*~~~
Tears of anger Tears of pain
Vows to never love again
Pillows wet from crying out to God
Where were you as I begged
Did you even heed my prayers
Don't you care...
God don't you care
~~*~~
~~*Finale*~~
We were given our free will
But the Lord, He loves us still
Darkness finds us, hurts us bad...
And He tries to hold us close
When we're suffering the most
Let Him in to free the dam...
&
Wipe the tears of anger...
