Picture lyrics

She clutched her square phone with eyes that never held hope 
and she about 12 yo but I really couldn�t tell though 
her sleeves went past her elbows in when she pulled them low 
they covered the cuts that ran back and forth like railroads 
a short bow up in her hair that matched her shell toes 
she stared at me in pale clothes she stood there froze 
she said can I show you a picture in my cellphone
it�s of my dad and aint I seen him since he left home 
but I aint mad it�s just my mom she feels all alone 
and don�t feel bad cause this is all we�ve ever came to know 
this pic is my new school but I don�t ever wants to go 
cuz everyone thinks they too cool and I hate it so 
I hide in my room and then I go and then I locks the door 
I don�t know what to do my mom she thinks she lost control 
I wanna show you a little picture before I gots to roll 
I said sure then she pulled it out slow saying.. 

if I told you if I showed you 
my pictures are all I can hold to 
would I know you could I hope you 
see that my pictures are all I can hold to 

if God loves me then why he make me face this 
I think I�m ugly I wanna change it like a facelift 
then suddenly she went and took off her bracelets 
showed me the cuts up on wrists and where they made prints 
sometime I get mad don�t know how to take this 
she showed me a picture of her dad back in 86
we look alike all the way to how our face gets 
I said your right and then I laughed but let me show this 

they say a picture�s worth a thousand words that I�m sure of
but let me show you this very picture you aint never heard of
pulled out a book and she said well tell me what is that 
there aint no pictures in that book thats just a page that�s black 
I said this picture represents exactly where we at
we in the dark without a spark of hope that will last 
I flipped the page she said that aint a picture neither 
that�s just a blank page, why don�t you look a bit deeper 
this represents the very place now that we can go
its all based on this next page I gots to show 
the next page is red you understanding this? 
well that�s the blood that Jesus shed so you can live 
and you can exchange your old pictures right now for Him
and you can trade it all in for what he�s down to give 
I put the pictures in her hands see it comes down to this 
which ones you holding on to yours or His
