Oh, The times I wanted to hold you
In this love that will never die
Like a soft flower blowing in the wind
Your destiny is unknown and uncertain
Your death could come at any time
By cruelty or a careless sleight
But I will always love you
Forever I will be fighting for your safety
Snarling at anyone who tries to hurt you
I've seen you through so much torture and pain
The powerful few and the ones who claim you
I will love you forever and you are beautiful
The way you fly in the wind
Not caring what chance may lead you to
You and I may have nowhere to go
And soon no soft  bed to rest our heads on
Oh how I longed for a place to rest my head
My father's cruelty will be the death of us
His refusal to let us live together
But I would rather die than live without you
And I would sooner kill him than be his physical victim
I face being relentlessly raped in different ways
For the rest of my life
You have nowhere to go and never will
Nowhere to rest your head
I plan to starve myself to death
Or linger on with you until I die
Oh cruel world was to cruel for our romance
So that we will soon have to die
We want More than life to be together
We don't want to die
But we would rather die than be apart
We should run away
But we have nowhere to go
Trapped in the United States of Greed
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
