the only thing you ever gave me were black and blue eyes
and it always ended in me letting out cries
you would come home angry and scream in my face
and waste no time showing me i was a disgrace
and always threatened me said not to tell
but everyone knew i was going through hell
why should i have to pay for your crime
why should i have to take the time
to cover up the scars ane emotions you left for me
when the teachers and doctors knew i was leaning out with my plea for safety
i will never for get how you came home at night
and the only emotion i felt was pure fright
now that your gone for good
i can say that i never quite understood
what i did wrong for you to do that to me
but now your gone and i am free
and it always ended in me letting out cries
you would come home angry and scream in my face
and waste no time showing me i was a disgrace
and always threatened me said not to tell
but everyone knew i was going through hell
why should i have to pay for your crime
why should i have to take the time
to cover up the scars ane emotions you left for me
when the teachers and doctors knew i was leaning out with my plea for safety
i will never for get how you came home at night
and the only emotion i felt was pure fright
now that your gone for good
i can say that i never quite understood
what i did wrong for you to do that to me
but now your gone and i am free
