As he lays her down
On a bed unknown
The words she used to say no
doesn’t seem to be working anymore
She tries her best but he would not rest
And even though her innocence is gone
She’d like to be a child once again
There\'s bruises now
She\'s scared to touch
She just wants him to listen
I don’t think that’s asking for too much
And then he goes to sleep
is when she begins to weep
She wears a frown and nightgown
As he lays her down
Four years down the way
She crashed her car
She prayed it’d take her life away
simply to relieve the pain
But the light was just white dust
no reason to complain
In the end she drank away
but it couldn’t fix her brain
She wears a frown and nightgown
As he lays her down
