Lyrics
I was hiding
behind the dresser...
Paralyzed with fear,
unable to speak.
Too afraid to move,
hiding in the dark,
huddled there
after what they did to me.
I tried to be brave,
I didn't scream,
afraid they'd come back,
I was hiding.
No one could save me,
No one came..
Hiding , naked,
covered in shame...
Rabbit girl
caught in a terrible trap,
now there's no
turning back.
Vomiting over
the side of the bed;
am I bruised
is there blood on my head?
CHORUS:
'Who will come and
wrap their arms around me?
God came, God came,
oh God came and found me...
Who is brave enough to reach for me?
Oh I hurt..
Help me, please help me.. wash off this dirt...
Invisible bruises~ invisible scars~
invisible me~ hiding in the dark..
