This is kinda a follow on from Kinky Little Nightmares well its in the same format...
Enjoy!!

Cry Like There's Nobody Watching!!


I sit and watch her playing, the smile in her eyes
My baby girl looks at me, its time for my goodbyes
I hold her hand and give her kiss; I’ll see you again soon
Mummy will pick you up later, somewhere around noon


I want to Cry But I don’t….

I pick up my bag and begin to leave when screaming is all I hear
My baby girl is screaming for me and I want to hold her near
Leave her Jessica, she must learn, mum whispers in my ear
I can’t stand to hear her crying I don’t want her to feel fear

I want to cry but I can’t….

I walk out the door and walk towards my car
All of a sudden I hear a gunshot and it doesn’t seem to be far
I hear children screaming and the deepest thoughts rush through my head
A lady comes running out, it’s your daughter Mam, she’s dead

I want to cry but I don’t know how too…

It’s like another eminem song. It’s so fake it’s real
These tormenting voices and these emotions I feel
First it was Kinky Little Nightmares and now it’s this
These tormenting dreams that I wish didn’t exist

I want to run but my legs wont move…

I awake again to room full of light
There’s a baby crying and I run to her in fright
Her face peeps up from the blanket revealing a smile
And I sit and watch her just for a while
She laughs and talks about things I cant understand
And I know if I cant swim the thought of her would bring me to land
I take her from her cot and give her a kiss
Its moments like this a mum shouldn’t miss…


And I cry like there’s nobody watching….

This is incredible!  I adore it!  I felt my heart jump into my throat at the gunshot, and then the "And I sit and watch her just for a while, She laughs and talks about things I cant understand" just killed me.  Amazing!

Those who dance are considered insane by those who cannot hear the music.
