I would hear the thunder,
It was ur voice,
No more fighting,
That was my choice,

I was so tired,
Of the tears and hate,
Stupid problems,
Couldn’t they wait,

Thanks to u,
My life was hell,
U swore and hit,
Every night u yell,

U lied to us,
Then went to a bar,
Came home drunk,
Destroyed the car,

U think I forgot,
But I wont ignore
The drunking nights,
The bloody floors,

U hit my mom,
She hit u back,
All u could do,
Was attack,

I hid in my room,
Pillow on my head,
When will it be over,
Clawing to my bed,

I wonder
If they knew,
The fake smiles,
That we all drew.

We don’t talk about it,
And I understand why,
But I’m beginning to believe
Ur turning back to that guy.
