She  was confused  and
 abused  in this life
Emotional  and violent  moments
Seemed  to take the longest  time
Every  single knockout  dragout
Fight  they ever had
he  starts to laugh he starts  to lie
 with Suddenly  psychotic  eyes.
Every  night she cried  herself
 to sleep  she didn't recognize
Her  own face in the mirror  black and blue
so  afraid Intimidation
like  a child she hides  away
 he would always  try to justify
 what wasn't true
 Justified black eye
Taken  for granted
 she sleeps  by the phone
waiting  for a call  from him
 but it seems  he's never coming  home
14  beers later
 He is there  without an answer
Once  again she questions  his lies
 he goes  to bed with no  reply
Tomorrow  morning different  story
 and  he'll be a different  guy
 he'll justify  her black  eye with another  lie
 She packs  her bags in great  temptation
 he´s  on his knees  again he cries
 a hug  & a kiss and a don't  know why
 as a tear  drops from her swollen eye
 Apologies  until tonight and another
 Justified black eye
