Check her body


Check her wrists and her thighs, 

What you might find may come to you as a surprise.

How could you not see what's under your nose,

You might want to check her from head to toe.

She's been crying for help,

even though she can't make a yelp.

All she wants to do is sleep she can't even eat,

You dont even notice that she looks down at her feet.

She can't even keep her head up not even a smile on her face is real,

How do you think everything makes her feel?

Step up and be a real father,

'cause soon you might lose your daughter.
