Lyrics
Must've Been Mistreated
Words and Music by Craig Bowers
Well you cry out at night while you're sleeping
But you look like a little baby girl
Must be some bad secret that you're keeping
You know I wouldn't hurt you for the world
(You) must've been mistreated
And you don't like the people that you see
When you're looking in the mirror
Close your frightened eyes and come to me
You know I'm standing right here
(You) Must've been mistreated
You know you've spent your whole life running
Trying to run from what's inside
When you see that dark cloud coming
You can run but you can't hide
Well you cry out at night while you're sleeping
But you look like a little baby girl
Must be some bad secret that you're keeping
You know I wouldn't hurt you for the world
(You) must've been mistreated
