Lyrics

Quiet Little Child
Is unable to speak out loud
you always look away
disconnected from everything

the lights the sound
are oh so loud
so you just shut them all down
I hope your mind is quiet now
and your heart sings

Let it out - Let me in
Let your mind be quiet again
Let the world see that you're
So much more than autistic

Living day and night
in a world full of black and white
Color you like my dreams
anticipating your every need

When you are weak
I will be strong
In my hearts where you belong
I hope some day you'll sing this song
In harmony

Let it out- Let me in
Let your mind be quiet again
Let the world see that you're so much more than autistic

Let it out- Let me in
Let your mind be quiet again
Let the world see that you're so much more than autistic

Two years ago an angel came
sweet baby boy to keep my name
something took you away from me - a Medical Modern Mystery
all we can do is hope and pray - Insurance has denied our claim - to get you the kind of therapy that you so desperately need

Let it out- Let me in
Let your mind be quiet again
Let the world see that you're so much more than autistic

Let it out- Let me in
Let your mind be quiet again
Let the world see that you're so much more than autistic

Quiet little child
is unable to speak out loud
but everythings okay
daddy loves you anyway
