Stray Child

Tender, loving heart
Where did you ever go?
Oh my little girl
You know they love you so

How can one get so lost?
How did you stray so far?
The map was right in front of you
Spoon-fed from a jar

Small innocent child
Why did you go astray?
They tried time and time again
Yet you refused to stay

Continuing to rebel
Ignoring simple rules
Acting like you've beat them
Treating them like fools

Open your eyes young one
Stop pretending to be blind
Treat your loved ones with respect
Be thankful, be kind
