She was confused and abused in this life
Emotional and violent moments
Seemed to take the longest time
Every single knockout dragout
Fight they ever had.
Apologies and dignity denied he starts to
Laugh he starts to lie with
Suddenly psychotic eyes.
Every night she cried herself to sleep
she didn't recognize
Her own face in the mirror black & blue,
so afraid Intimidation like a child she hides away
he would always try to justify what wasn't true
Justified black eye
Taken for granted she sleeps by the phone
waiting for a call from him
but it seems he's never coming home,
14 years later he is there without an answer
Once again she questions his lies
he goes to bed with no reply
Tomorrow morning different story
and he'll be a different guy,
he'll justify her black eye with another lie.
She packs her bags in great temptation
he's on his knees again he cries
a hug & a kiss and a don't know why
as a tear drops from her swollen eye
Apologies until tonight and another
Justified black eye
Justified
Black eye
Justified
