HIS EYES SO FULL OF FEAR
WITH EACH ONE OF HER BEERS
THE MORE SHE WOULD DRINK DOWN
THE MORE HE WOULD FROWN
HE KNEW WHAT WAS COMING
BUT HE DIDN'T NOW WHY
EACH NIGHT SHE WOULD CRY
WITH EACH HIT SHE THROW
HIS BRUISES HOW THEY GREW
SHE CAUSED HIM SO MUCH DISTRESS
SHE WAS SUCH A MESS
SHE NEVER FELT HEARTACHE
HER HEART DIDN'T EVEN BRAKE
ALL SHE COULD DO WAS SHAKE
SHE HIT HIM JUST A LITTLE TO HARD
HE NO LONGER HAS FEAR
AS SHE WHISPERS IN HIS EAR
AND TELLS HIM SHE LOVES HIM
HER SON IS GONE
NOW ALL SHE CAN DO IS DRINK
AND THINK
THAT ITS HER FAULT
