Beaten In the Shadow of Abuse
You struck me down and beat me down to a ground I never saw before
You left me the shame
I felt nothing but the sting of the misery of pain
I have a bullet deep in my back
The scolding burn left to be the abused
Where the hurt reeks inside my very veins
My breath is shattered and shallow
There is no way out
The emptiness runs through
The night swallows me through and through
You pull me down
You break me apart
You tear my walls down
You ruin everything and my nighmares make dreams disappear in the night where
life falls through the depths of the dispair in the land of loss.
