He left me for dead,
At the side of the unused road.
Gave me a little kick on the way by.
I didn't mind.
You see, he loves me.

I crawled my way to the town.
With torn and bleeding fingers.
Wound up at the town square,
waited to be found.
It's dark and the wolves howl.
I shiver in my bones.
I am not afraid.
You see, he loves me.

I stumble to my weary feet.
Walk with unsteady steps to his house.
He hasn't changed the locks,
He must be waiting for me.
I touch the walls of what I call home,
make my way to his room.
He is holding another woman in our bed.
She must be his friend.
You see, he loves me.

'Get away from me, you wretch.'
I sit down by the bed and wait.
Soon he will climb out of bed,
and carry me to the tub.
My heart squeezes out a tired smile
As he makes his way to my side.
A painful sting as his hand meets my skin.
He drags me out by my hair.
Leaves me outside his gate.
He will be back for me.
You see, he loves me.

An ambulance drives up.
He called medics to attend to me,
I knew he cared.
I Get checked into ward 7-
The psych ward.
Doctor explains its only temporary,
My mind must have snapped from strain.
They will fix me then I can go home.
He will come to visit.
He will take me home.
I told you he loves me.
