He's holding her down
Screaming in rage
It's just another fight
On a theater stage
She holding back tears
Remaining strong
Forgetting what's important
Like where she belongs
He slaps her hard
Another bruise
Why can't she leave him
She's got nothing to lose
She takes it silently
Wishing her life would end
She doesn't love him
Why does she pretend
He get up and leaves
She's still on the floor
She mutters "I'm sorry"
I can't take it anymore
I want here in my arms
To keep her with me
But knowing how she acts
It will never be
I want to cry her name out
In this ringing air
I want to take away the pain
And make it as though he was never there
I wish i was him
So i could love her all day
Hold her in my heart
Where she will forever stay
Gritting my teeth
I watch her take it over again
I can't remember how long
This began
She's so beautiful
Why can't she see
That it shouldn't be him
It should be me
