There it is again That face; Those eyes; That smile; Those teeth It shows up in my dreams It follows and watches me It will pop out at any moment There it is again That laugh The one that haunts me It sounds like a witch concocting her poison It makes its presence known when I make a mistake That hideous cackle I think it laughs at my pain...and my fright There it is again Those hands The ones that grab me and hold me back The ones that pull my hair, Caress my face like a toy Those hands with scars and bruises Cuts and blood cover them The hands that hold the knife I fear my blood is next There it is again It never leaves me It haunts me in my sleep It haunts me in the day It loves to see me in pain I cannot get away There it is again It will never leave

There It Is Again
There it is again That face; Those eyes; That smile; Those teeth It shows up in my dreams It follows and watches me It will pop out at any moment There it is again That laugh The one that haunts me It sounds like a witch concocting her poison It makes its presence known when I make a mistake That hideous cackle I think it laughs at my pain...and my fright There it is again Those hands The ones that grab me and hold me back The ones that pull my hair, Caress my face like a toy Those hands with scars and bruises Cuts and blood cover them The hands that hold the knife I fear my blood is next There it is again It never leaves me It haunts me in my sleep It haunts me in the day It loves to see me in pain I cannot get away There it is again It will never leave
