you look at me through your bruises...
the haunting shadows that cover your vibrant eyes
baby, stop making these silly excuses
i'm still lost in those eyes
i will always be
because they are a reflection of my past life
i know what you're going through...
you act like i can't construe
all the pain and suffering
i've been there...
when you just can't take it anymore
your face is bruised, his abuse covers you
you try to hold back, but the tears come
you cry so hard that your face becomes numb
your whole body becomes numb
numb from the constant pain he puts you through
you can't bear to look in the mirror and
smile at the thought of him ending it all for you
cause then you won't have to take this shit anymore
and he'd be in jail
and this would all be over
this would all be fucking over
gone, gone.. all gone..
and its those nights that you cry and pray desperately
for god to save you, for him to take you away
you smile weakly at me
this isn't how you wanted to live
and now its the day you finally snap
and slap him back
you gritted your teeth, because now
you cant take it back
your fear freezes you
until you see him reach for that metal baseball bat
the same one he'd hit you with before
your eyes widen
you know now its over
not for you, for him
you take the gun and pull the trigger
the baseball bat falls onto the white carpet
along with his blood
for the first time since you met him
your smile broadened
it was no longer fake
now all the pride he had to take
away from you
was now gone from him
and you smiled
you smiled
the horror was over
"motherfucker..." you whispered
and you smiled
you smiled.. |
