WHY by Destiny

It's time for me to start listening to me

The day has come to set myself free

My head and ny heart always at war

My head's saying go but my heart shuts the door

Suffering each day with the hurt and the pain

Wanting you to love me again and again

I somehow find strength to stand my ground

Your explosion of anger is coming back around

There's nowhere To go, i can't reach the door

I turn away, please stop,i can't take no more

Numb yet in pain, here i still stand

Flinching and scared at the twitch of your hand

I can't get away, there is nowhere to run

Just ride out the storm, the worst of it is done

Blurred from my tears or the thought in my head

I can't seem to focus, inside i am dead

Crying and angry i pray this is the last

Then u threaten again just as you walk past

I look out of the window, i begin to sob

"why are you crying, just shut your gob"

Im banging my head against a brick wall

I scream if you cared, why are you so cruel?

Then like a switch as you turn on a light

"I love you baby, are you alright?"

Friends aren't stupid they know what goes on

So i lie to protect you and say nothing's wrong

Gradually the pain starts to heal and fade

How long can i keep up with this terrible charade

It's your reputation that must stay in tact

You'll do it again and i know that's a fact

I cannot predict when the next rage will be

But deep down inside, you're killing me.
