The Abuse
He knocks her to the floor,
In the night, her blood bleeds black
She starts heading for the door,
But then he begs her to come back
She's in ecstacy, then pain,
This has happened times before
She's addicted to his game,
So she comes on back for more
He whispers sorry in her ear,
And prays she'll say okay
He's always scared that she'll give up,
But she always says she'll stay
She kisses him, and holds him tight,
She knows she'll never leave
She tells him it'll be alright,
As her heart goes on to bleed
