The way I cared didn’t matter to you
I couldn’t believe the terrible way you treated me
Things kept running through my head and I didn’t know what to do
Knew what was happening and just ignored what I had to see

It could have been love
If I was able to see what we had
Everything I said and did made you mad
There was so much guilt because I couldn’t be perfect

You got so angry with me you started throwing punches
Blamed myself for your mistakes
Took the abuse that was offered to me by you
Your words and blows to my body kept happening

Hid behind the bruises and all the lies
In my mind I thought things would change
Everything would go back to normal
Things changed but you got worse and more vicious

Wanted someone to take care of me without the violence
Got to the point where I couldn’t cover it anymore
Tried running and hiding- nothing seemed to work
The shot finally took care of all my problems

My heart was set free to a place where it could heal
I didn’t need to lie to anyone to protect myself
My life was back to normal - - and gone
Gone with the wind and him
