Beat down and abused by you
I've forgotten who I once was
I gave you everything
And you just took and took
Depleting me
I carried the flesh of our flesh
Within me
I carried the weight of our love
Inside my body, she grew strong
I wore the wounds you gave me
Deep inside
The only one who knows my pain
Has your beautiful blue eyes
When she calls out for you
And you're not here
I know all too well, what she will feel
I want to wrap my arms around her
Protect her from the world
I want to protect her from you

Beat down and abused by you
I've forgotten who I once was
I gave you everything
And you just took and took
Depleting me
I carried the flesh of our flesh
Within me
I carried the weight of our love
Inside my body, she grew strong
I wore the wounds you gave me
Deep inside
The only one who knows my pain
Has your beautiful blue eyes
When she calls out for you
And you're not here
I know all too well, what she will feel
I want to wrap my arms around her
Protect her from the world
I want to protect her from you
