One Day

inspired by Face Down by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

As the tears fell down her cheeks,
They stung
Like a needle piercing the skin

She was pushed around so many times,
She was use to the pain

Having been pushed down stairs,
Slammed into walls,
And hit until she bled, so many times
She had thought that she deserved it.

She didn't deserve it, though
But you made her feel like she did

So tell me,
Does it feel good,
To push her around
To make her do things she doesn't want to do
Do you feel like a man,
When you hit her
Only telling her, her worst qualities

One day she'll realize shes had enough
That she doesn't deserve this

And you'll no longer have control over her
Though you think that will never happen
Because you think she's so weak
But actually,
for having to put up with so much pain
She's one of the strongest people you'll ever know

One day she'll find someone
Who will love her for her
Someone who can make her happy
And never hurt her

One day all of those lies
Will be blown apart
and you'll be left behind
To pick up the mess

While she moves on
And finds a better life
