Baby Girl
by Jeremy Vanderloop

Album: The Rescue

There's a girl, she's lying on her bed
Feeling all alone and useless inside
She says, "I've just gotta feel something now"
And she doesn't realize that the Father's crying out

OH MY CHILD, DON'T YOU KNOW THAT I REALLY LOVE YOU
SO PLEASE DON'T HARM YOURSELF, FOR MY SON WAS HARMED ALREADY
YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL, MY CHILD, AND YOU'RE NOT ALONE
FOR I AM BY YOUR SIDE AND I WILL NEVER LEAVE MY BABY GIRL

There's a girl, the most beautiful girl
She looks in the mirror with no self-esteem
She sits at her meals and wonders where they go
"Will this go to my thighs, this to my stomach?
Will this go where I don't want it?"
And she doesn't realize that the Father's calling out

There's a girl, she's scared out of her mind
She's six weeks pregnant and the boy's not around
So she goes to the clinic of death
She kills her little baby and she doesn't know why
She says, "I wasn't ready for it"
But every day she thinks of what it'd be like
To hold her little baby in her arms
And to watch it grow up and play all day
