You must have been a beautiful baby.      Sometimes hard to find your voice…    You must have been a beautiful baby. Doing nothings technically a choice.

You must have been a beautiful baby.        How’d it ever come to this?                        You must have been a beautiful baby.        A face they couldn’t wait to kiss…         

You must have been a beautiful baby…      You had to have been someone’s bliss?      You must have been a beautiful baby.  Did someone go away that you miss ? 

You must have been a beautiful baby    All you say now is dark and down…            You must have been a beautiful baby        Wearing those scar wounds like a crown.

You must have been a beautiful baby Each word more hurtful than the last.  You must have been a beautiful baby  Have you suffered for your past? 

You must have been a beautiful baby        It’s time to grow or die.                            

You must have been a beautiful baby.      But for the Grace of God go I.
