angel in the swamp

Singer:story of the year

ohhhh!

in this home quiet the sin

violence is known

only by the ones who bare these walls

she is saint hiding it all

underneath her smile her soul is shamed

'cause a father's hands speak a thousand words

of what he thinks of her

with the sound of her breaking down

one day when the pain is gone she will finally know

she is not alone

but the sound of her breaking down

seems never-ending now

ohhhh!

the worst is over

yeah the worst is over

yeah the worst is over now

for so long she holds the blame

she bares the curse

weighing down on everything she knows

honor betrayed taken away

even now the brightest star will fade

'cause a father's hands speak a thousand words

of what he thinks of her

with the sound of her breaking down

one day when the pain is gone she will finally know

she is not alone

but the sound of her breaking down

seems never-ending now

ohhhh!

the worst is over

yeah the worst is over

yeah the worst is over now

she's alone

she's alone

she's alone

now!

'cause a father's hands speak a thousand words

of what he thinks of her

with the sound of her breaking down

one day when the pain is gone she will finally know

she is not alone

but the sound of her breaking down

seems never-ending now

yeah

seems never-ending now

ohhhh!

now the worst is over

yeah the worst is over

yeah the worst is over

no!

nooooooo!

nooooooooooooo!

no!
