As so far back he cares to remember He pictures seeing his old man lose the temper And the angels face is one to be punished The same angel that protects from old mans rage Forcefully putting herself in another place It's been going on for uncounted years Simply put, hair fallen out for fear Every day it would happen inside Kept away from everyone till the day that he died And now the anger lives on through their son He who saw, caught it all, a whole childhood raw Everything, so dark, covering up to hide the marks But under force there's an attempt to justify a returning Pretend that he's just a hurt person Let the little one be the last to pray Please don't stay
