I went back to all the hate mail
I went back and retraced all my scars
I went back and followed you to the start
Of all the none believing
In your heart
You don't believe in
yourself
your face
your hair
your smile
You used to smile at me
and say things like
I wish I could make the pain go away
From his hands
His knuckles
His teeth
Everything he ever used to beat
you, break you, eat you
alive
I always thought he was broken
But I never thought he'd cut you with
all the shards
I keep having dreams where you're
standing now
But you've been pushed down so low
That theres no getting out
I'm sorry I chose Mary Jane
I'm sorry I chose to Escape
I'm sorry I chose to Look away
But I'm not going back there
No way
I liked to think
I chose to leave
and You chose to stay
But I know you just
chose him
instead of liberty

** I in no way am insinuating that women decide to stay in abusive relationships. I put this together from memory.
Please accept my apologies if this troubles you.
