Halsey For Ruby

Never seen someone make pink so pretty

Play make up and dresses litter the floor

Her smile's chasing her cheeks to her eyebrows

We'll laugh until our tummies get sore

 

Only five years old and she's so nervous

Daddy blows out candles and he sweats

Too young to understand this birthday

Will be the best gift Daddy ever gets

 

She said her body held a monster

And she needs help trying to fight it

And she knew that when he crossed her

That it was wrong but she could right it

And she took my hand

 

And I said, please put up your fists

Put on a smile, and blow them a kiss

'Cause darling you're nothing but brave

And I know that you can be saved

 

We're gonna chase down the monster

We're gonna chase down the monster

 

Glitter painted toenails and she stands tall

Says Momma, Santa's coming soon

Momma laughs and chokes her tears back

Says baby girl he's coming just for you

 

Only five years old and she's so precious

Sings to every song on the radio

Too young to understand that this one

Was written just for Ruby 'cause I know

 

She said her body held a monster

And she needs help trying to fight it

And she knew that when he crossed her

That it was wrong but she could right it

And she took my hand

 

So darling don't you give up

Go and put your chin up

Show 'em that your strong enough when it gets rough

To last a second round

 

Darling please put up your fists

Put on a smile and blow them a kiss

'Cause darling you're nothing but brave

And I know that you can be saved

 

Put up your fists

Put on a smile and blow them a kiss

'Cause Ruby, you're nothing but brave

Oh, and I know that you can be saved

 

We're gonna chase down the monster

Yeah we can chase down the monster

We're gonna chase down the monster

Yeah we can chase down the monster

We're gonna chase down the monster
