She was a girl
Just another girl
So young and free
Like you and me
She was no different
Just the same
But people bullied her
Called her names
What did they know?
What did they care?
Nothing, oh no
It wasn't fair
She didn't understand
Like a lamb to the slaughter
The devil led her by the hand
Nobody's daughter
Did you try to stop him?
Did you try to save her?
You knew the way out of sin
The way to the Saviour
But no...
Her mother left
A long time ago
Her dad beat her
But you wouldn't know
It was no time to judge
No time to criticise
Not when she was
Contemplating suicide
But what did you know?
What did you care?
Nothing, oh no
It wasn't fair
She didn't understand
Like a lamb to the slaughter
The devil led her by the hand
Nobody's daughter
Did you try to stop him?
Did you try to save her?
You knew the way out of sin
The way to the Saviour
But no
She was no one to you
Oh no
She meant nothing to you
So let me tell you what happened next
And let me tell you why
All because of you and your spiteful words
This young girl lost her life
But can you face a truth as cold as this?
Or will you live on beneath a lie?
A dozen pills and your goodbye kiss
Was enough to end her life
She didn't understand
Like a lamb to the slaughter
The devil led her by the hand
Nobody's daughter
Did you try to stop him?
Did you try to save her?
You knew the way out of sin
The way to the Saviour
But no
She was no one to you
Oh no
She meant nothing to you

I agree... this could be a song... very well written... I can relate buy knowing a few ppl who would fit this poem...
It's a very chilling thought... a very true thought... I try to help, as well as pray, for those who I know are in situations like his or something similiar. Thank u for sharing...

I liked this poem. It was strong and heartfelt. It made me angry inside because I realize how true it is. I wish people would care! I wish people would love! I wish...I pray!
