This song is about a girlfriend of mine. if you or someone you love has been a victim of sexual abuse, please don´t be afraid to seek help. the sexual abuse helpline is open 24 hours a day, and
Ne who cares is waiting for your call...(800)4a-child


I see her as a little girl hiding in her room
She takes another bath and she sprays her momma´s perfume
To try to wipe away the scent he left behind
But it haunts her mind.

You see she´s his little rag, nothing more than just a waif
And he´s mopping up his need, she is tired and afraid
Maybe she´ll find a way through these awful years to disappear.

Ask me if i think there´s a god up in the heaven
Where did he go in the middle of her shame´
Ask me if i think there´s a god up in the heavens
I see no mercy and no one down here´s naming names
Nobody´s naming names.

Now she´s looking in the mirror at a lovely woman face
No more frightened little girl, like she´s gone without a trace
Still she leaves the light burning in the hall
It´s hard to sleep at all.

Still she crawls up in her bed acting quiet as a mouse
Deep inside she´s listening for a creaking in the house
But noone´s left to harm her, she´s finally safe and sound
There´s a peace she´s found.

Ask her how she knows there´s a god up in the heaven
Where did he go in the middle of her shame´
Ask her how she knows there´s a god up in the heavens
She said his mercy is bringing her life again.

Ask me how i know there´s a god up in the heaven
(how do you know´)
Where did he go in the middle of her shame
(where did he go´)
Ask me how i know there´s a god up in the heavens
(how do you know´)
She said his mercy is bringing her life again
She´s coming to life again.

He´s in the middle of her pain
In the middle of her shame
Mercy brings life
He´s in the middle
Mercy in the middle.

So ask me how i know
Ask me how i know, yeah
Ask me how i know there´s a god up in the heaven
(how do you know´)
Ask me how i know there´s a god up in the heavens
(how do you know´)
Yeah, ask me how i know
(how do you know´)
Ask me
Ask me
Ask me how i know
(how do you know´)
There´s a god up in the heavens
Ask me how i know there´s a god up in the heavens.
