Wouldn'T It Be Funny
Wouldn't it be funny
If you could escape the part
Where he stood before you and told you
What a piece of 'rubbish' you are
And where you started to believe you were.
Wouldn't it be funny
If you could escape the part
Where he punched you
Then another slap
Before persuading himself
You'd caused your bloody nose.
Wouldn't it be funny
If you could escape the part
Where he stood before you with a knife
Told you slowly and clearly
How he would take your life.
Wouldn't it be funny
If you could escape the part
Where you dreaded every second of every day
Never certain how he would turn
Would he be loving or how much would it hurt?
Wouldn't it be funny
If you could escape the past
That you could love and trust
Without the haunting echoes
Of every moments he done.
Wouldn't it be funny
If you could laugh in the face of all you lost
Wouldn't it be funny
If you could escape what happened cost
Where your mind could be free of that part.
