Pretty Words
Breath mingles
Hearts break
One more kiss
Lots more at stake
Don’t pull me away
Leave us alone
Can’t you see?
Hear his tone
He’s only playing
He really is nice
Oh, these bruises?
That’s the price
I love him
But you don’t care
So what if it hurts
It’s perfectly fair
For me to have an angel
I have to pay a price
In bruises, blood, or pain
To keep my angel nice
Angry words
And pulling hair
Sometimemes he’s sorry
Sometimes he doesn’t care
And yet I love him
For all that he is
Through all the pain
I still need another kiss
You just don’t get it
No one does
Why don’t I leave?
Um… because
In hate there’s love
In pain there’s bliss
In ugly there’s beauty
Behind a fist there’s a kiss
You don’t get it
You don’t see
Why I stay
Why I don’t leave
Love is stupid
Love is blind
“Pretty words”, you say
“but there’s another reason to find.”
You say that’s a lie?
You think your mother too kind?
You say that’s enough?
Then you should leave me behind.
But you are right
Though, I will never say
That I stay here to defend you
until my last day.
