Little River Band - Who Speaks For Me Lyrics
It's 4 o'clock in the morning and I'm too afraid to sleepI never know when I'll hear him sneak through my doorBeen paying me little visits for more than a year nowIf I could only fight back, I wouldn't take any moreSo who speaks for me when I'm too young to fight?Who speaks for me in the black of the night?Who speaks for me?Last kid off the bus, I'm standing in the drivewayStill feeling the sting from yesterday's bruiseThe smell of whiskey and smoke spilling out the doorwayStep inside or run away, I'm not old enough to chooseSo who speaks for me when I'm too young to fight?Who speaks for me? Who's gonna make this right?Who speaks for me?You can't pretend that you don't know meI am the kid next doorThe quiet one you never speak toThe problem you ignore3 o'clock in the morning, I'm sitting in the drivewayMomma told me to run but I only got this farI heard the screams and the shots, I heard my momma cryingNow they're taking her away in a black and white careSo who speaks for me when I'm too young to fight?Who speaks for me in the middle of the night?Who speaks for me?Who's gonna make this right?Who speaks for me? 'Cause I'm too young to fightWho speaks for me?Who speaks for me?Somebody speak for me 'cause I'm too young to fightWho's gonna speak for me?Who's gonna make it right?
