[Verse 1] She hides beneath the bed at night Her tears fall in the pale moonlight The bruises tell what words can't say She prays to God to take her away [Chorus] She whispers so softly "dear God are you still there? I need to know Do you still hear a broken little girls pleas and prayers Will you please Take me away from where the sorrow and shame are hurting me daily and to bring me were i cannot have my evil over shadow the good in me Where the stars always shine bright and the ropes of anxieties unwind on me. Take me away where the sadness smother me Where the stars shine so bright and the ropes slowly unwind for me [Verse 2] Daddy's pockets lined with my fear He counts the bills while I disappear A hollow shell where love should stay God hear my cry please light the way [Chorus] She whispers so softly "dear God are you still there? I need to know Do you still hear a broken little girls pleas and prayers Will you please Take me away from where the sorrow and shame are hurting me daily and to bring me were i cannot have my evil over shadow the good in me Where the stars always shine bright and the ropes of anxieties unwind on me. Take me away where the sadness smother me Where the stars shine so bright and the ropes slowly unwind for me [Bridge] She dreams of skies where she's set free A world where love's not a currency The echoes of her small voice still pleads Oh God please take my shame and replace some of my needs [Chorus] She whispers so softly "oh dear God are you still there? I need to know Do you still hear a broken little girls pleas and prayers Will you please Take me away from where the sorrow and shame are hurting me daily and to bring me were i cannot have my evil over shadow the good within me Where are the night stars always shine bright and the ropes of my anxieties unwind on me. Take me away where the sadness smother me Where the stars shine so bright and the ropes slowly unwind for me
