Waking up
Not knowing what lies ahead
Hoping for
It all to be over soon
Did she have a good day or a bad day well I never knew.
How did this happen?
What did I do wrong?
I was only a child
But it hurt nevertheless

How many tears
Must fall of my face
How many years
Do I have to wait
Before this must come to an end
Before someone can save me
Every night I was crying in my sleep
How many tears
How many years

It felt
Like I was slowly drowning
But it was she
Who drank her problems away
It is not fair
To be in the middle
Of love and addiction
I was only a child

How many tears
Must fall of my face
How many years
Do I have to wait
Before this must come to an end
Before someone can save me
Every night I was crying in my sleep
How many tears
How many years
