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
