I'm growing weak
Week after week
Around my neck a string
My house now a ring
She whacks me
She won't let me be
I am strong
My arms long
She is stronger
Her arms longer

Listen,I can't share my pain
I am ashamed
Ashamed of what will become of me
Listen,I can't share my pain
I am afraid
Afraid that no one will hear my plea
Listen,I can't share my pain
I am scared
Scared of provoking the heartless she

I'm growing weak
Week after week
Around my neck a string
My house now a ring
She whacks me
She won't let me be
I am strong
My arms long
She is stronger
Her arms longer

Listen, I know her no more
She has turned into a beast
The present her I abhor
For she listens to her conscience the least
Behind our shut door
Misery has become my daily feast
I hate to hate what I adore
But with her hands curled into fists
Her mercy I'll forever implore

I am her rib donator
But, you can call me her punching bag
A gift to her from our creator
But you can call me her whacking bag
Call me her whacking bag
Call me her punching bag
It's me
It's the forgotten us
