Marie Anne
Marie Anne, there will be peace when you are through
Marie Anne, rest your weary head
Marie Anne, go to bed and it'll all be over soon
Marie Anne, don't cry no more.

Marie Anne, rest your weary head
Marie Anne, go to bed and it'll all be over soon
Marie Anne, don't cry no more.
Dear sweet child, cover your ears
You don't need to hear your mother and father,
You shouldn't be listening to their screaming.
School's tomorrow and its hard to rest when they are in the other room fighting.
No worries, hide your face under the covers.
Those evil monsters won't hurt you.

Marie Anne, there will be peace when are through
Marie Anne, rest your weary head
Marie Anne, go to bed and it'll all be over soon
Marie Anne, don't cry no more.
Now, now don't fret
Everything will be alright,
I know it's another night,
Another fight,
But don't cry, your mother she will be alright.
Your father can be grouchy,
Your mother is only tired.
You're fed up.
You wish for something better,
something that's everlasting,
something that gives you purpose.
Crash!,
Dear girl, I'm sorry you have to live like this.

Marie Anne, rest your weary head
Marie Anne, go to bed and it'll all be over soon
Marie Anne, don't cry no more.
You were only trying to sleep,
It wasn't too long till suddenly bang!
Your mother had been shot dead,
She was gone and so was your father.
Then left your spirit.
Marie Anne, there will be peace when you are through
Marie Anne, rest your weary head
Marie Anne, go to bed and it'll all be over soon
Marie Anne, don't cry no more.

Ms. Jackson,
First I love the song. "Carry on your wayward son." You used it beautifully to tell
of an unfortunate and sad reality that many children face. A touching and heavy write sweetheart.
Loves to
You
Keith

Thanks Keith,
I wanted to write about a serious subject but at the same time use a good song I remember liking from when I was little so I combined both as a way of telling a story about a little girl who has to deal with both domestic abuse and emotional abuse from her family. Thanks for reading :)
