Sitting alone on my bedroom floor, fighting back the pain from the beating he gave me just a moment before. I know he said he’d stop but I guess he lied, cause I’ve got a busted nose and and a bloody face to testify. I know I thought all was lost, yeah I thought you’d die, but the very next day I came walking way and you suddenly came alive…you see…I was hiding my face and my swollen and you ran to me and you held me close and I started to cry, and slowly you looked at me and said…
I saw the horror in your eyes, I felt the pain you felt inside and now I scream to tell the world just what he did to you know that I saw it too, I felt the blows as they pierced you, my body shakes and my soul is tired, how could he do this to you?
Now I’ve gotta move fast, now I’ve gotta get out because of you I finally see that I am worth it now. I’ve got no money, see he took that too, but I’ve got my legs, by brain and now my courage too. Then you took me in, and you cleaned all my wounds, and gave me a home some love and my dignity too. I’m alive because of you!! When you said…
But why did you do this, why did you care? Why’d you come back for me don’t you know I was as good as dead? You see nobody cared, yeah they heard my screams, but they turned their backs, and left me alone to live this fatal dream. And as I looked in your eyes, I saw a glimpse of pain and could see you were just like me when you said:
I saw the horror in your eyes, I felt the pain you felt in side and now I scream to tell the world just what they did to you know that I saw it too, I felt the blows as they pierced you, and now you ask me how I knew, because he did it to me too.
