Stabbed in the Back

Foundation and Ice covers the marks

so people don't question the scars

if they ask "Is everything all right"

You smile and put on a fake disguise

Every night she dreaded going home

Cause a druken man was always on the other side of the door

You put the kids to bed and turned the radio on loud

So they wouldn't hear your cries and screams pouring out

When he's finally done you lay awake in bed, praying to be brought out of this misery and dread

One day you got up the courage, grabbed a knife from the kitchen and stabbed him in the back

The same way he stabbed you when he said he'd never hurt you

Years later you still go through pain

But now you have a Granddaughter that'll help you through anything.
