im looking out the window
watching life just pass me by
and as his fist reaches my face
i cannot let him see me cry

cant let him have that satisfaction
of causing me such pain
i just bite my lip and take it
but this strenght i cant maintain

a silent tear rolls down my cheek
which makes him want to hurt me
more
my fingers dig into the ground
as i strugle for the door

i scream a little louder
in hopes someone will hear
but then he hits me harder
then when he first saw that tear

all i can do to lessen beatings
is sit quietly in shame
and take the hits unto my face
and pretend no one is to blame

my cheeks are black and blue now
my make up's running down
and whre there was once a smile
he has left a frown

i wish that i could give up
but i can not let him think he's won
so i quietly sit and take it
until his beatings are all done
