These nights, these days, this young girl's so afraid
Here in the moon's soft light she's praying
Cause she knows if he satys there'll be a price to pay
Her and his son's new life, he wants
to go inside and she sees

That he can't control his disease
But he'd never hit her if she hadn't screamed

Looks like she's waiting for the shorter hand
But I wonder if she knows how slow it goes
She's got two evils and she can't decide
If she weighs her choices right, it tips one side
One new life, one bad guy

So young, so scared, a big world where no one cares
Oceans of faith recede to waste lands
It's too bad, it makes me so sad to see
another have to grow up without a
dad
At least not one like he needs, a man who leads

Cause he's way too old for his age
And I doubt he'll ever grow to change his ways

Looks like she's waiting for the shorter hand
But I wonder if she knows how slow it goes
She's got two evils and she can't decide
If she weighs her choices right, it tips one side
One new life

God, give her courage now to decide
So hard to know what's wrong and right
She needs to know what's best for her son
Not this one, leave him here

Looks like she's waiting for the shorter hand
But I wonder if she knows how slow it goes
She's got two evils and she can't decide
If she weighs her choices right, it tips one side
One new life, one bad guy
