Julie Miller - Precious to God lyrics
[Julie Miller - Precious to God lyrics]
She puts on her smile
Just like the lipstick that she wears
She gives herself amnesia to
Anaesthetise the shame
She knows it isn't real
But she can't afford to feel
But there's something her soul can't forget
She can use a smile just like a barrier
She can count the pieces of her heart
She can say her prayers and she
Knows all the right words
But she doesn't know how to
Feel precious to God
She knows it doesn't help to
Pretend to be asleep
She knows there are secrets daddies have
That little girls must keep
But she doesn't know where children go when
Home is where the hurt is
She can use a smile just like a barrier
She can count the pieces of her heart
She'll be anybody that you want her to be
But she doesn't know how to
Feel precious to God
She can use a smile just like a barrier
She can count the pieces of her heart
She can say her prayers and she
Knows all the right words
But she doesn't know how to
Feel precious to God
Just like the lipstick that she wears
She gives herself amnesia to
Anaesthetise the shame
She knows it isn't real
But she can't afford to feel
But there's something her soul can't forget
She can use a smile just like a barrier
She can count the pieces of her heart
She can say her prayers and she
Knows all the right words
But she doesn't know how to
Feel precious to God
She knows it doesn't help to
Pretend to be asleep
She knows there are secrets daddies have
That little girls must keep
But she doesn't know where children go when
Home is where the hurt is
She can use a smile just like a barrier
She can count the pieces of her heart
She'll be anybody that you want her to be
But she doesn't know how to
Feel precious to God
She can use a smile just like a barrier
She can count the pieces of her heart
She can say her prayers and she
Knows all the right words
But she doesn't know how to
Feel precious to God
