R. J. Burling ©02 January, 2009 Dedicated
to the victims of abuse.
 Loneliness within her heart just seems to get her down Does not want to live a life ex-pressed with only frown But that’s how she feels. Tortured by the past she left behind so long ago Why she had to go through that she just does not know Only pain she feels. So she’s CHORUS Crying in the silence: a pain within her heart Crying in the silence: why did the feelings start. Crying in the silence: the pain hurts deep inside Crying in the silence: the shame she feels to hide. No-one would believe her when she tried to tell her tale They would turn and tell her it was just a fairytale They just said she lied Battered, bruised and shattered she just had to go alone No one wants to hear the sound of pain that makes her groan She just left and cried. left her CHORUS Doesn’t want to go on: she just feels that none could care None to sit and talk about the pain she needs to share No-one hears her call Fate has dealt a blow to her she feels none understand Wasn’t life supposed to be something that was grand Wants to end it all. Now she’s CHORUS Crying in the silence: a pain within her heart Crying in the silence: why did the feelings start. Crying in the silence: the pain hurts deep inside Crying in the silence: the shame she feels to hide. CHORUS 2 Crying in the silence: where no-one feels her pain Crying in the silence: her heart is filled with pain Crying in the silence: she feels she can’t go on Crying in the silence. |

 Dedicated to
abused children
Yet she’s only five; Taken by the one who should Make her feel alive. Took advantage of her trust, Did that with his lies. Now she suffers with her shame: All alone she cries. CHORUS (sung by a child) Daddy please don’t hurt again Like you’ve done before I don’t like the things you do Behind this tight shut door Daddy won’t you go away Please don’t make me wild All I have when you’ve been here Are tears of a child. What he did can’t be undone She is scarred for life. Wonder what her future brings Through the storms of strife. Shattered by the sickest lust Forced upon her mind. By the one she trusted most That is so unkind CHORUS As she grows so does her pain Deep inside is shame. Wonders why she has to feel Guilt from his sick game. All the things he does to her Messes up her mind. When she tries to tell someone They pretend they're blind. CHORUS |

slaves of abuse.
VERSE 1 The lines upon your face are all etched with fear Look into your soft eyes and there is seen a tear And mis'ry is all you feel but you can't get free He has you within his grip as tight as can be He has his way with you when he feels he has need Doesn't care about your life, only just his greed He has control of you: though you hate the sad life Could not care what you feel; you are only his wife. CHORUS The sun don't shine from your face any more Shadows appear to be all ‘round your door. Like one has gone and just turned out your light. Once more you feel like you'll give up your fight. VERSE 2 The child that lies within you should bring you great joy But to him it is only just a pleasure toy One he will be hoping to use for his pleasure That is all he feels about your little treasure She is destined to cry out all because of pain Brought about into her life by his own sick gain All this she cannot fight; her life we may yet mourn A wasteful sentence laid on one who's not yet born. INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE (CHORUS) VERSE 3 Just walk away and seek for those you know will care Those who know just what you feel, ‘cause they have been there In faith they took a stand and just walked right away And felt that they no longer wanted there to stay. There are people who will help and take up your fight So that you can have life where you can feel just right And so the child who lies there, deep within your womb Will not be forced to find her peace down in a tomb CHORUS 2 The sun can now shine on your face once more The shadows be banished from ‘round your door. Someone has come and just turned on your light. And now you can stand up and win this fight. |

their rights stolen by abuse.
REFRAIN Claim back what is yours Don't let the devil have his way Take it back in God's name Have it back today The devil tries to take it all Does not want you free Plunders, robs and tries to steal Things from you and me All good things that God gives He will try and break Does not want us rich in God But our spirit take REFRAIN And evil comes in many ways Disguised as friend not foe Hoping that we will not see And give it a go Thinking that we do good Tricked us with his lies Forces us to go against God Cares not for our cries REFRAIN We must forever be alert For his evil ways Does not care just who he hurts Leaves us in a daze We must fight: strive to win Wield a victor's sword Take all things back from his hands Only with God's Word REFRAIN REFRAIN |

When Bobbie Lee came to this world She brought so much joy. But right from that very day She was Daddy's toy. Then at just the age of six Her Dad thought it was time: Undressed himself and took the girl And on to her he climbed. CHORUS Bobbie Lee had little chance To escape this fate. All life ever did for her Was just give more hate. The years went by and she just grew Prettier each day. As a teen she'd catch the eye Of men along her way. Soon she found herself entwined Within their putrid lust. Only wanted her in bed: Having her: a must. CHORUS At twenty one she found herself Carrying a child. Had no idea whose it was And that made her wild Bitterness inside of her It filled her mind with strife. Her little girl she would not share, So Bobbie took her life. CHORUS |
R.
J. Burling ©22nd July, 2009 Dedicated to children who are
abused
NOTES: The title suggestion came from Carlynn, US Author and writer of articles for Crying In The Silence. She said that this sound was the greatest fear an abused child could ever hear. Once again I hear the sound coming to my room Only hear it in the night, sounds like thunder boom. Someone please tell Daddy that this is not right. I just hate the awful sound of footsteps in the night. Can't recall when it began, was so long ago Maybe when I was just five, only God could know. Live this horror every night: can't tell me it's right I just hate the awful sound of footsteps in the night. INSTRUMENTAL VERSE My Mum says it is not so. All I do is lie. Does not want to know the truth, how it makes me cry. Please, God, take this pain away, please just make it right I just hate the awful sound of footsteps in the night. |

Spreading their evil on innocent souls. Looking for people whose hearts flow with care. Searching for souls who share and just help: To prey on their goodness and then strip them bare. They haven't a care for how others pay. Their only intent is to ravish and steal. They don't really care about what it may cost, For them, the joy is just making them squeal. It isn't just money they rob from these ones But anything else they can take, as they please. Stealing their pride, their bodies, their soul: Destroying their victims to satisfy sleaze. Parasites of society, there's no other name. We can give to abusers who cause so much pain. Their only intention is to satisfy self: And take from the victims all that they can gain. When they are finished they just move along Leaving behind them so much despair: Moving along to the next one they'll take, Leaving each victim naked and bare. |

Wielding words; his fists; his club: Watch out it's not a knife. For in his drunken, angered rage He'll try and take your life. He rants; he raves; he screams at you; He wants to bring you down. He has no cares for what you feel And cares not if you drown. Evening comes: the fights begin; You no longer have peace. Because the night puts you at war With pain that cannot cease. He's preyed on you for far too long: And you welcomed him in. That's when all those around you saw Your painful life begin. The bruises on your body grow You cover them in shame. He doesn't mind your pain at all, He treats it like a game. Your misery grows more each day As he controls your mind. But you just cannot see this part Because your love is blind. Your children live in fear and pain Awaiting their next fright. The harm is done within their lives: They fear the coming night. The fear they have becomes too much; It drives them to despair. What will result if this goes on Is death, I do declare. |

He comes and takes me down. I never know when the next time will be+ He'll come and take off my gown. He is too strong to fight. What he does causes me pain. Always he comes in the night. "Oh no! I hear him again." CHORUS Give me a reason to live: This pain in my life goes on. Give me a reason to live: If only I could be strong. Give me a reason to live: Why am I treated this way. Give me a reason to live: Can't face another day. He took me in when I needed a friend Said that he'd be my mate But all the things that he uses me for Just only cause me to hate What he does is so wrong: Should not be done to a boy. Tells me, to him I belong; Uses me just like a toy. CHORUS FINALE (same melody as chorus) There is a reason to live: Why had I never heard? There is a reason to live: Found only in God's Word There is a reason to live: Now I have been set free. There is a reason to live: Please let all people see. |
