The Last Time

Inhale and exhale, then inhale again Have you any morphine to lessen the pain If I give you a split lip DO NOT let the secret slip If I go on to give you a black eye You know that to others I will deny Don't question when i take away your phone What reason do you have to call home Life sometimes can be such a drag To spice things up I'll make you my punchbag I may call you some unsightly things But you're mine, on your finger I put that ring Yes I'll hide your clothes and tell you what to wear And to be quite frank, I really don't care I don't care that I've reduced you to tears Because I make sure when I hit you, nobody hears I don't care you're an adult, nor care how you feel I certainly don't see a problem, so what's the deal I dare you to call the police, or even a friend Do you think that will make your nightmare end I own you and you're mine to keep I don't care how many times you plead and weep I will not let you go so please understand If you question me you'll feel the back of my hand I don't want any of your friends near Because if they are I'll give you a thick ear I know how to manipulate you and make you feel wrong I'm a pro at this I've been doing it for so long The fact of the matter is I am an abuser And will do my best to think you are a loser I will lock the door and hide the key And don't be lookin for no explanation from me I will dictate to you what clothes to wear And if you don't like it, then walk bare I can't really say that I'm sorry and that I'm weak As those words you will never hear me speak I have loads of issues and don't know what to do So instead I'll take them out on you You are actually innocent in this relationship But will find any reason to suddenly flip The dinners not ready, the floors a mess My fists and rage I cannot suppress But I know if you left I'd probably crumble 'It won't happen again' I regrettably mumble 'I love you darling, you know that you are mine' I promise that this will be the last time
