Lyrics
It?s hard to rise from bed today
The bruises hurt, won?t go away
He?s drunk and punchy once again
And mother?s screaming ?I hate you!?
He thinks he?s God, his will to serve
I?m stuck in this life I don?t deserve
And mother?s crying down on her knees
She?s eating Jesus once again
And she?s screaming all the time
I?ve had yours, one day you?ll get mine
Just one more push and I?ll push back
I?ll cut you down ?til there?s nothing left
Won?t be another suicide
The weaker you make me ? the stronger inside
Although the sunlight?s almost gone
I?ll be back brighter once you?ve gone
The hand that feeds will feed me now
Between my teeth you scream and howl
This dog is down, but biting back
I know a soft spot out the back
And in the morning we?ll move away
To face the world full of hope again
And someday soon I know full well
That she?ll fall in and out of love again
I ate you
