Jen Carie wrote about a traumatic event in a child’s life. And performed it like only she can. Heidar Sigurdsson added the haunting beats and bass and NunoW took care of rhythm and lead guitars. Some shivering production…
The child frozen in place
It only took one shot
What was seen and heard that night
Ripped out innocence, must turn to rock
Daddy whatcha got
Keep breathing, don’t go
Loud bang of a .45
Thief robbed the child’s soul
Ballerina in my box
Dance for me
Ballerina in my box
Set this child in me free
The screams of momma’s voice
Turned to silent stares
Whispers that he had a choice
Streaks of angry tears
Daddy whatcha got
Keep breathing, don’t go
Loud bang of a .45
Thief robbed the child’s soul
Ballerina
Ballerina in my box
Dance for me
