Making the Pain Go Away

A shameful and disgraceful act Causing havoc and impact Is not going to be forgotten An open door is quickly shuttin' Locking me alone with the Horrid and cruel memory Feeling your fist again Black and blue--more bones broken Sun come up--abuse will start There is not one single spot On my body that is clear Living in a hellish fear That will last, I can not run Chained up to a loaded gun That will fire if I try To escape, wondering why This madman has changed so much From the soft and tender touch Of young love, gentle and pure Now there's evil and no cure For what I am being put through There's just one thing left to do Let the bullet in the gun Undo everything he's done
