You gave me that look again just now
The one that hurts and makes me vow
To never say that again because I know whats coming next
No matter how hard I try my best isn't my best
So I stand and face you and wait for a blow
And when I stumble you stoop to kick me when I'm low
I know I cannot cry out because you'll just kick me once again
Another constant reminder of this troubled life I'm in
When I wake up in the morning its to stiffness and I'm sore
Its always because of you you awful stupid who**
I cant even imagine what I did to deserve this pain
I work all day but never will I gain
I stand against the corner and try to block your hands
You find a way to stop my futile plans
You lock them tight around my neck and swear Ill never breathe again
You shake and squeeze until finally you win
Then you let me go and I fall weakly to the ground
Then you kick and kick until I cannot make a sound
One time the cops came for they heard my painful screams
So you stuffed me in the closest and wiped my blood off on your jeans
Once they left you locked the door and turned to me and smiled
You said oh how I hate you you stupid stupid child
Then you opened up the closet and pulled me out so I could see
The reflection of the broken face that I know is me
The bruises that I tried to hide so I could go to school
I never knew children too could be so cruel
I stopped leaving this house and am tortured night and day
I'm living this life and I'm haunted by my pain
You wake me up at midnight for a great surprise
That look you've got again in your eyes
The rage and hate I see in your face was caused by someone unknown
But whoever it was I wish they never left this home
Life will never be different and I know thats true
I know because all I have to do is look at you
And think about the night before and that smack against the wall
Or I can look into the dent down in the hall
Tonight you took your knife out again and shoved it in my arm
I don't know what is so fun about causing harm
But you just sneered and twisted till blood filled the air
And you got that look in your eyes the look called I don't care
