Uninvited Guest - Abigail

Текст песни

Hush little baby…
(Hush little baby)
Don’t say a word…
(Don't say a word)
Hush little baby…
(Hush little baby)
Don’t say a word…
(Don't say a word)
She cries alone inside her head
Can’t shake the memories from her head
He always called her his princess
She was the one he loved the best
Her mother never saw the signs
Although it happened many times
She was too busy with the chores
She said she couldn’t see the doors
Just like placing her dolls in rediculous poses
She told her secret without uttering a word
Just like placing the dolls…
Abigail, sweet Abigail!
Don’t blame yourself for what your daddy did!
Abigail, sweet Abigail!
You were just a child, only just a kid!
Please Abigail, my Abigail!
I can’t empathize but I can understand!
You’re older now, you survived somehow
He was not a man, you are safe here in my hands!
Hush little baby…
(Hush little baby)
Don’t say a word…
(Don't say a word)
Little children chasing…
(Little children chasing)
But never heard…
(Never, ever…)
The truth lies thick upon the ground
Your family circle broken down
Accusing eyes stare in distrust
As if you made the whole thing up
They really care, make no mistake
But it hurts him too, it’s hard to take
They feel disgust, they feel the shame
But you are not the one to blame
Just like placing her dolls in rediculous poses
She told her secret without uttering a word
Just like placing the dolls…
Abigail, sweet Abigail!
Don’t blame yourself for what your daddy did!
Abigail, sweet Abigail!
You were just a child, only just a kid!
Please Abigail, my Abigail!
I can’t empathize but I can understand!
You’re older now, you survived somehow
He was not a man, you are safe here in my hands!
You remember the relentless ticking
Of the clock on the walls
Or the descent of the gentle footsteps
Coming down the hall
I know it must be hard to say
This is very hard to hear
But now that you’re older now
And you’re not his little girl anymore
Abigail, sweet Abigail!
Don’t blame yourself for what your daddy did!
Abigail, sweet Abigail!
You were just a child, only just a kid!
Please Abigail, my Abigail!
I can’t empathize but I can understand!
You’re older now, you survived somehow
He was not a man, you are safe here in my hands!
Don’t blame yourself for what your daddy did!
My Abigail, sweet Abigail!
You were just a child, only just a kid
Please Abigail, my Abigail!
He was not a man, make him understand
You’re not a little girl anymore!
