The redness of his face permits
The truth his words won't dare admit,
His sunken eyes are hid behind a darkened lens
­
Broken doors and thoughtless words,
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Feeble threats and loveless debts
Prove nothing when she still steals your breath
­
She stands tall with strength not height
You see the fists inside her eyes
Now its time for her revenge
Delivered acid tongue, god pity/help him
She sits there in the aftermath
And listens as cars drive slowly past
­
She sits there in the aftermath
And listens as cars drive slowly past
His final show, his lies
Had done nothing but cured her smile
­
Her bruises fade from black to blue
Over time they slowly heal
You'll think you've grown found love again
When you break your own heart
It'll never mend
