Domestic Violence

 

Sit in silence and wonder

 How can love and lust turn to thunder

 Cloudy days and rain with haze

  A smack in the face hot like summer

 Then back in love again

 A ghost in the wind

 Seen and unseen never comes again

 Words cut like a knife

 Blood that can't be wiped

 How such a good person

  Can turn so mean

 Dirty looks fill the room

 No matter who the audience is

 Tempers flaring like a coca colas fizz

  Then back in love again

 A lot of fighting and f#cking

 A game that nobody wins

  He's a victim she's a victim

  Fingers pointing to the blame

 Wanna get away from it

 Wanna forget your name

  Drawn in by love and lust

  Or whatever we call it

 Addicted to the violence

 Just like an alcoholic

  This is very far from real love

  Real love doesn't hurt

  Domestic violence Domestic violence

 Is not what anyone deserves...
