BEATEN

So I was a little late
Didn't know you'd care
Can you even see me
With that stone cold stare?
Your eyes say too much
Your rage is so clear
Is that me screaming
Or is it my inner fear?
I wanna soothe you
Calm you down
You wanna hit me
Knock me around
What do you expect?
I'm not your slave
I have my own life
You think you're brave?
I'm not gonna fight you
I'm not gonna surrender
I'm not gonna please you
I'm not gonna make you dinner
I'm not gonna cover for you
No, I'm not gonna lie
I'm gonna do it right
I'm not gonna die
Yeah, I've said it before
That doesn't mean I won't
You think you know it all
But I know you don't
Someday you'll see
Yeah I know too well
I'll show you all right
I'll take you to hell
I won't shed a tear
No matter what you do
I know what I can handle
And I can handle you
I don't need any help
Maybe I'm a little ashamed
Maybe it's my fault
Yeah, I'm sure I'm to blame
I probably push you
It's me that is causing it
I know that you're sorry
It's just a bad habit
But this time you'll break it
Sure I have faith
Just don't let the kids see it
Their hearts would break
Do I really have to beg you?
I don't wanna lose
I can't breathe
Your hands are a noose
What will everyone say
When they see me tomorrow?
Do you have a turtleneck I can borrow?
That's enough
I can't last much longer
Please, stop, I beg you
You've proved it, your stronger
Just say your sorry
Don't do it anymore
Everything's going blank
And I'm sinking to the floor...
