Hush
Hush
She looks out the window
To see if he’s coming home
She is newly wed
But he leaves her alone
He mistreats her
And puts her down
Then he goes out all night
With other girls all over town
And then she cries
How long can she pretend
A voice tells her hush
The longest rope has an end
She has four sisters
They cry on her wedding day
They were so close
But now they are so far away
And then he comes home
He likes be in control
Hits her on her face
Because his food gets cold
And when she cries
Heart fill with pain
A voice tells her hush
You will smile again
She makes up her mind now
Will not take no more
And when he sleeping
She sneaks out the door
she ran all night
through the pouring rain
leaving behind a bridge
never to cross again
She fell in her mother’s arms
Their tears fall on the floor
Her father would have kill him
But he’s not living no more
And as they cry
She feels a new beginning
And a voice tells her hush
Today your pain has end
