A girl is breaking her heart,
As another tear marks her face,
A baby cries in the next room,
But her pain holds no place,

A man shouts ‘please just let me go’,
As he tries so hard to leave,
The girl screams ‘I just want to be happy’,
But her man is scarred by the lies he believed,

So he walks out of the door,
And in the next room his daughter screams,
So his wife injects heroin,
Wondering what happened to her dreams,

She doesn’t want to be in this world,
So her drugs take her to another,
She sobs so hard it hurts her heart,
And she forgets that she’s a mother,

And in the next room her baby cries,
But no one seems to hear,
A baby’s heart is innocent,
But not when filled with fear,

And as the snow that falls outside,
So cold is her heart,
Her daughter will never understand,
Why her mum tore her world apart,

A sad record plays so loud,
And drug induced, she sings along,
Drowning out the cry from the next room,
How could her life go so wrong?
