A bitter man
Can't you see
Past the smile
And lies
Don't you see
The bruises and
Cuts
All over me
A sinful man
Why can't you see
Past the mask
Of loving
His family
Don't you see
In our eyes
No one believes
To our demise
This is a house
Not a home
Not with a man
Leaving fear in our bones
He walks in the room
Why don't you see
How we're not happy
Not laughing
Crying
He's a beast of a man
Savagely defeating his family
Why can't you see
