You've hurt me more than once
And you made me cry
But I guess the whole time
I was living a lie
The sound of your voice
The picture of your face
No matter what I do
It seems to always put me in my place
All those times you came home late
All those times you kept me worried
Until you beat me down
And out of the house I hurried
With a child at my side
Living on your own
You found us
And everything was blown
The games started again
It seemed like it never ended
I thought I was going crazy
So counceling is what I attended
Having proof of your fist on my stomache
And your boots on my back
I went to the police
Confidence I couldn't lack
You are in jail now
It's about time
Now the life I live
Is finally mine
My child is still paranoid
But she's doing okay
But pain you've caused
Will never fade away
As for me I'm moving on
Even though it's hard to say
That the memories live on
From day to day
