Beaten and bruised
Hot pavement in June
Crashing and smashing
Broken and laughing
The pain the stains
Try to hide it
No one can know
Your father denies it
The tears and fears
You need to escape it
Red marks under sleeves
Changing of leaves
Time passes to spring
You escape from his wrath
Your life is important
I can promise you that
He won't strike you down anymore
That's a matter of fact
