Footprint - Nits

Scar between the shoulders

Scar on the back of his head

The sole between the shoulders

The heel on the back of his head

Mother said it looks like a footprint

And she knows it very well

Mother said it looks like a footprint

And she’s hiding it very well

Dark spot on the baby

He’ll never be that strong

His face upon the carpet

He’s waiting for so long

So long so long so long so long

Mother said it looks like a footprint

And she knows it very well

Footsteps in the backroom

He knows there’s something wrong

His face upon the carpet

He never felt so strong

So strong so strong so strong
