The fear rises from the pit of my stomach pushing up through the bile
Depositing itself on my tongue. Burning searing all the while
The anger comes from nowhere, no rhyme or reason for his hate
All at once the shouting starts, warning signs come too late .
Screaming at each other words are razor sharp insults flying
They hurt as much as blows but I’ll be damned if I’ll let him see me crying!
Hate burning into our hearts and souls. You are dragging me slowly over the coals
Where does this angst come from why do we keep fighting what evil sets the goals.
When did we drive our love to this hate
When did life sour the food on our plate
It all started out so fine we were shining stars
Now we are muddied and blooded and covered in scars.
The fear rises from the pit of my stomach pushing up through the bile
Depositing itself on my tongue. Burning searing all the while
The anger comes from nowhere, no rhyme or reason for his hate
All at once the shouting starts, warning signs come too late .
