May Flowers - Cursive

I colored this picture for you
A little girl crying in her room
Her mom's just outside the door
holding her head

Her brother's outside shooting hoops
Yeah, you can see him past the windowsill
But we're not looking at him
the same ever again

"Baby, what'd he do to you?
Come on, what happened to you?
Tell Mama that you're ok."
May flowers
She won't say a single word
The doctor's gave up on her
"Some things just can't be cured."
or covered up

These days, she's hardly alive
Uh-oh oh-oh
She's already dead in the eyes
Uh-oh oh-oh
The house has been silent ever since
Uh-oh oh-oh
Tell me what happened to Caroline
Whatever happened to Caroline?
Whatever happened to Caroline?

Come on

"Now baby, what'd he do to you?
Come on, what happened to you?
Mama knows it hurts inside."
Deflowered
"When you're on your feet again
you'll grow a resilience to those cold, unrelenting showers."
May flowers
Grow taller
The harder April storms on the land

If you knew those storms were going to come
I thought mothers protected their young
Uh-oh oh-oh
Those rain clouds are hiding your son
Uh-oh oh-oh
Now look at what happened to Caroline
Look at what happened to Caroline
Whatever happened to Caroline?
How do we solve a problem like
Uh-oh, Uh-oh
Uh-oh, Uh-oh
Uh-oh we don't
Uh-oh, Uh-oh
Still, we've got to catch those clouds, we've got to keep them down
How do we solve a problem we don't want to know about?
Uh-oh, Uh-oh
Uh-oh we don't
