Hope was lost within you
between each forceful hit
breathes were but a few
love only lasted such a bit
tears only fell
when i gathered all my strength
no one near to tell
hope at great length
blissful blood dripped each night
when i thought i couldn't make it
couldn't take the fight
each cut hurt less than each hit
then one day I'd had enough
couldn't suffer anymore
as though no more pain could be inflicted
my body so sore
breathes were quite constricted
when all was said and done
drained completely of emotion
just as you thought you had won
the day i cause a commotion
the pain still lingers from those words
but baby I've regained my strength
and realized how absurd
you've really made me stronger
