She came in looking cold and afraid When the elevator door opened She looked both ways She said, "Life can turn on a dime When I was ten he pushed in And took what was mine" I remember days when she sat Across the room dazed and fazed Her mind had wandered back She said, "I couldn't feel anything" Her body froze to numb the misery Your trust is all I'm breathing The voice behind your mask The eyes that show they're searching For pain to find a home For pain to find a home She found the courage To face the monsters in her head But shame was the one Who would not relent She said, "I am the one to be blamed Lord help me see That I was just a little girl" She took time to Learn compassion for herself To grieve the past, what was lost What was never there She said, "I wish my mother had cared No one to bear the suffering No one would dare" Your trust is all I'm breathing The voice behind your mask The eyes that show they're searching For pain to find a home My mind is what you're reading The voice behind my mask The eyes that show they're wondering What a broken jar can hold What a broken jar can hold It's alright honey You can cry It's alright Your tears deserve our time It's alright I promise you are safe To give the pain a place And I will hold the frame
