She was confused and abused in this life Emotional and violent moments Seemed to take the longest time Every single knockout dragout fight they ever had He starts to laugh, he starts to lie Suddenly, psychotic eyes Every night she cried herself to sleep, she didn't recognize Her own face in the mirror, black and blue So afraid, intimidation, like a child she hides away He'd always try to justify what wasn't true Justified black eye Taken for granted, she sleeps by the phone Waiting for a call from him But it seems he's never coming home Fourteen beers later, he is there without an answer Once again, she questions his lies He goes to bed with no reply Tomorrow morning, different story, and he'll be a different guy He'll justify her black eye with another lie She packs her bags, in great temptation He's on his knees, again he cries A hug and a kiss and a don't know why as a tear drops from her swollen eye Apologies until tonight and then another Justified black eye
