Bloody Bed

by Mike G   Jan 29, 2007


A hollow point to my head
Leaves a bloody mess upon our bed
I can't remember what words were said
To make you feel this was the way to go

It seemed all we did was fight
No love making, just the same shit every night
Who cares who was wrong and who was right
Because now we'll never know

I should never have put my hands on you
It was a cowardly and unmanly thing to do
You wouldn't stand for another single bruise
And it caused you to make this choice

You tried to tell me but I did not seem to hear
I seemed to dismiss the cries you were screaming in my ear
No longer would you stand living in this fear
You made damn sure I heard your voice

It rang loud and clear as the shot whistled in the air
A reminder of all the burdens you had to bare
The last thing I remember seeing was a cold black stare
From a woman I had torn apart

As my soul leaves the bed I can't help but think
This was my fault for pushing you to the brink
The life I had is gone within a blink
By a woman who had once stolen my heart
