With that sorry look
What have you done?
You lie there
Hurt and bleeding
Half alive
Wondering, always wondering
'What have I done?'
Why are you sorry?
What have you done?
He came home early that night
Drunk as always
And angry as could be
You tried to run
Until the fists went flying
Then
All you could do was take it
The boy with stars in his eyes
What have you done?
You with sad eyes
And the sorry look
What have you done,
To deserve the beating this time?
You're on the floor
Lying
Bleeding
Crying
Don't cry, starry eyes
Don't cry
Don't cry
If you stay right there
Lying
Bleeding
Starry eyes…
I'll come get you
Bring you out of the dark
Patch you up
And carry you to a better place
A better place
Where light will shine down on you
And dry up those tears
A warm embrace
A kind reassurance
Don't cry
Wait for it.
