When her mama got remarried Hope was eight years old Her stepdad was always angry though she did what she was told When the house was sleeping he'd slip into her room She blocked out the rest but morning never came too soon Mama cooked and cleaned for him blind to what went on Her rose-colored glasses covered up all that was wrong Scared of what he'd do Hope kept quiet as a mouse When she turned 18 she ran like fire from that house Mama never heard her cry mama never heard her wail While she was tossing in her sleep mom was lost in a fairy tale Afraid she'd have to make a choice mama chose to look away Life was safer in a lie mama never heard her cry Now Hope has a daughter but she doesn't understand Why she has a grandpa but she's never met the man Hope won't see her mama more than once in awhile There's no talking to her mama's living in denial Mama never heard her cry mama never heard her wail While she was tossing in her sleep mom was lost in a fairy tale Afraid she'd have to make a choice mama chose to look away Life was safer in a lie mama never heard her cry It's hard but she's trying to forget the past Muffled cries that echoed down an empty hall All those years between them There was only one thin wall Mama never heard her cry mama never heard her wail While she was tossing in her sleep mom was lost in a fairy tale Afraid she'd have to make a choice mama chose to look away Life was safer in a lie mama never heard her cry She never heard her cry While her innocence was passing by Mama never heard her cry
