Monster

I try not to flinch as he screams in my face

After all, his bite's worse than his bark

I try not to cry as he calls me a disgrace

But the tears fill my eyes

His shouts echo through the dark night

I can't believe this is my life

He raises a hand and I close my eyes

Knowing when I open them I'll have another mark

This mark,

It will be another scratch, bruise or scar

Either way I won't be surprised

Though the tears still fall from my eyes

A sting, a slap, it hurts, it echo's

The same tense silence fills the air

Just like the first night he hit me

He doesn't care

About me, did he ever?

Did he ever in the five years we've been together?

I open my eyes and it's like the first time

Nothing like the first night

The first night I saw the man I loved

Now all I see is the monster behind him

No more pain

I have to go

But where will I go?

How do I know...

If this is right?

I'll just stay for one more night

The phrase I've been using since that first night

The fight in me is gone

I'm lost

Lost in love with the man

Who comes with the monster

I'm trapped with the love of my life

And my tormenter with a knife to my throat

An angel's face

With the claws of a monster.
