Hush little sister,
Please don't cry.
I wish I could be there,
To sing you a lullaby.

I can see your arms,
Bloodied and bruised.
That's strange little sister,
Mine were like that too.

I know you scream,
When daddy's there,
But hush little sister,
I know your scared.

I can see the way,
He's hurting you.
I'm sorry little sister,
He did that to me too.

I know that people,
Ignore what's going on at home.
That makes me angry, little sister,
You shouldn't have to go through this alone.

Hey, little sister,
Do you want to know why I'm not there?
It's a sad story, little sister,
But people should care.

You see little sister,
On day daddy got high,
You were asleep in your crib,
So you didn't hear me cry.

He screamed at me,
Then smashed my head on the door.
While you slept, little sister,
I died on the floor.

You know little sister,
I don't think I would have died,
If someone had only bothered,
To listen to my cries.

But hush, little sister,
Daddy's coming home,
Quick get in bed,
Don't let him see you alone.

I'm sorry little sister,
He's in a bad mood,
Run while you can.

Uh oh, little sister,
He's lifting his belt,
Please little sister,
Scream for help.

Hush, little sister,
You don't need to cry,
No one can hurt you,
You'll be in my arms tonight.
