|
Every day she fears her life will end |
|
Every time the call rings they are late |
|
They never come quite in time to see his fist |
|
Leave its mark on the side of her disgrace |
|
They'll never charge him anyway and you know it |
|
Say we can't get involved today |
|
So where's the choice and who protects her now |
|
Bruised and battered the blood has stained her gown |
|
Useless screams for help can't save her now |
|
Choices rendered the house is burning down |
|
No one will ever understand cause they don't have to feel his crushing hands |
|
And the ears that ignored her screams before are now wondering what she did it for |
|
But with a bottle of kerosene she found her freedom |
|
And then burned the bastard to the ground and ran |
|
The fire will now wash away the blood on her white wedding dress |
