Botched

From FAWM 2009
This is a dark song that was inspired by real events in the news last February in Florida. KatieSchu helped a bit with some chord suggestions, and is going to help me record this -- Thanks Katie!!

Lyrics:

A baby was born that day into a world that didn’t care
Her mother looked on with such despair
She worked so hard to take her very first breath of air
her mom looked on with such despair

The nurse stopped in to see how mom was doin…
Tears had filled the mothers eyes
The nurse just looked at her with reassurance
“Everythings gonna be alright”

Mom watched the nurse pick up that little baby
And throw her in the trash
And through that trash bag mom could still see her moving
The nightmare of that sight will be with her until her days
have come and passed...

Decisions that she’d made were crashing all around
Crashing All around her
If she had only known, would it change anything
Could it change anything?

A baby was born that day into a world that didn’t care
Her mother looked on with such despair
