A man alone, A man unheard never to speak a word He is a dream, a figment of what he used to be A man is married, he does not care She is his to own He torments her, all the time An illusion, of what he was A mirror is broken, a mirror is shattered Pieces of him on the floor He is shattered, he is broken nothing but a dream He is shattered, he is broken he lies on the floor The pieces of him, what he was before he took a drink He beats her often, he beats her hard She is always afraid He tries to change; He won't change And yet she wants to stay "I love him so, I love him so" Is all she ever says Beat her rough, beat her hard So she'll finally leave You loved him then, you hate him now You are wising up He hit you then, you shot him now You are finally safe The courts hate you, I love you this is our debate They let you free, you go with me You are finally safe.
