Violet

I needed so much to free myself from you My skin is so thin and fragile Every time he strikes A violet grows I have endured years of suffering and abuse Your violence has broken me inside out Never for better, always for worse All my body wants is to run away A life of terror, I'll never get used to it You tell me, you love me And you smash my face! I just can't take it anymore You tell me, you love me All you do is smash my face! My skin is so thin and fragile Every time he strikes A violet grows You have won, no one knows of my existence I'll cover my body, and conceal myself once again And I'll pretend to be okay And you'll rape me again Living on the razor's edge Every single moment I spend with you Sometimes I don't know If I'm allowed to breathe You have to let me go One day Everything will stop No more promises My skin is so thin and fragile Every time he strikes A violet grows In a moment of rage and despair Under the blows, I grab a knife I stab so hard, many times, everywhere! All this flowing blood To wash away my fears! I am free! They found me trembling and crying On my knees, in your blood Close to your body They can lock me up for my crime I'm no longer your victim! Now, in my garden of fears The violets are wilted
