Secret closet

by Beth   Nov 5, 2005


I'm sitting in my closet
To tell you all that's wrong
Cuz even if you went away
You're what keeps me strong

Ive told you all my secrets
Since I was about two
And that's why even now
I know I can talk to you

Mom just doesn't understand
But I think she tries
I think she has her own troubles
Cuz ever night she cries

I need to ask you questions
But I know you won't reply
I wish you wouldn't have left
Daddy why'd you have to die?

A few nights ago mommy hit me
And tears ran down all night
Daddy it just isn't home
When you go to bed in fright

Dad moms been changing
And I don't know what to do
At night I don't feel safe
Cuz and she's been drinking a lot too

Last night was the worst
She hit her pride and joy
And though it hurts for me
He's just a little boy

He doesn't know good mommy
Because you left before he came
And ever since you've been gone
Nothing been the same

Dad moms coming soon
I hear her at the door
She's screaming and she's yelling
But I need to tell you more

You're the only one I talk to
So I will try and make this quick
Oh no she's at the door
And i think i heard her kick

Dad please protect me
She's still looking all around
But I have to be really quiet
And I cannot make a sound

Dad she has a knife
She's never done this before
Oh my god is that my brother?
He's lying on the floor

Dad I think she found me
But I have one last thing to say
Daddy please still love mommy
Even if she takes me away

I can feel the blood around me
Dancing threw my hair
Mom why did you do this
Is it because you do not care?

Each breath is getting shorter
But I thought that you should know
That I really love you both
But now I have to go
