Safe

Safe Below
The stinging battle of words
Like bullets
We're hidden beneath your covers
With hands held tight and throbbing heads
Ringing telephones send chills
Down backs but just
Close your eyes and pretend you're not here..
Wait for the last door to slam
And Daddy's car to start
We've gotten used to this,
So we're still feeling alright
This is nothing more than normal
This has become our every night.
